"A student of mine made these. I don't know where she got the recipe. You can also freeze these for up to a month. Just reheat foil wrapped frozen scones for 20-25 minutes in a 300 oven."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in Western KS and am a K-5 Librarian. I love to cook! Don't we all? I'm married to a VERY picky eater. For me, cooking is a great way to relax. I love baking the best. Christmas is my favorite time of year because I can make so many yummy goodies. I'd like to make goodies year-round but we definitely don't need it!
