Cream Scones

Directions

• Preheat oven to 425°F.
• In a large bowl, sift together the dry ingredients.
• Gradually add enough of the cream to form a soft dough.
• Knead lightly on a floured board, handling the dough gently to retain the air needed for the scones to rise.
• Roll out to a 1/2- to 3/4-inch thickness.
• Cut into 2 inch rounds with a sharp knife or use a cookie cutter.
• Arrange on an ungreased baking sheet, leaving a 1/2 inch space around each one.
• Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown.
