Another variation of my scones. This idea came from one of the girls in my class, Amanda. —UnderTheCocoCasaRoof

I made them today and they came out beautifully and taste delicious. I like also the fact, that it is not such a big batch like when you bake cookies. Perfect for the two of us. Thank you!
