Mmmm, daisy these scones are so good! They are flaky and tender with a lovely crunchy top. YUMMY! I made half the recipe using herb infused butter (a little less than stated) and milk instead of the half-and-half. It worked out perfectly and tastes oh so good! I ended up with 8 big scones. THANKS SO MUCH for sharing this superb recipe with us! Made and reviewed for Ed#n#9 Novembre 09.
