I love scones with coffee or with tea. These are simple to make and in under thirty minutes you can have fresh baked scones in your very own kitchen. Follow these simple steps . . . and enjoy these tasty treats with your morning cup of coffee. Warning they go fast . . . if you have kids you probably should hide a few otherwise they will be all gone in a flash. No joke even my dog Buster enjoyed one - without my permission of course. Wink, wink! I hope you enjoy my latest recipe creation. Bon Appetit, Cecelia
