SCONES! SCONES! SCONES!

Here's one of my (and my family's) favorite treat...whether they are served after a meal for dessert, or breakfast with a hot cup of jo, or just an afternoon snack...scones always go over well in this house!

BLUEBERRY SCONES
Ingredients:                                   Icing Ingredients:
3 1/4 cup flour                              1/2 lb powdered sugar
1/2 cup sugar                                2 Tbsp butter
1 tsp salt                                      2-3 Tbsp cream
5 tsp baking powder                      dash of salt
1/2 lb chilled butter                       1/2 tsp vanilla
1 egg                                           Stir icing ingredients together until very smooth!
3/4 c cream
1/4 cup blueberries

Preheat oven to 350.
Stir together the dry ingredients, then cut in the butter until crumbly.
Mix cream and egg together and add to bowl. Mix until combined.

  Place mixture on surface to knead gently. Fold in the blueberries.

Form dough into a ball then, flatten out about 1" thick

With a knife, slice into 8 equal wedge shape pie pieces

Place wedges on baking stone or greased cookie sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes.

Do not let the edges turn dark!

Let cool completely.  I like to transfer them into a sided dish before drizzling icing all over them!

Set them on your counter, let your kids and hubby find them, and you will be loved....forever!
