Thanks. How lucky, a colleague at work is entering a village scone competition, and asked us all if we had any "special recipes". If it's ok I'll share yours with her?

Re: Liz's Home made scones

Would just like to say thank you for your recipe - had not made cheese scones in a long while and gave your recipe a go with great results - am inspired to try fruit ones now.

Re: Liz's Home made scones

Hi All, Just as a variation....I make cheese scones from time to time and follow the same recipe as Liz but also throw in a sprinkle of mixed herbs to add interest. people all seem to like them!!! they don't last long enough to freeze!!
Mayday
