To celebrate Julie’s delicious gift of fresh lemon curd from Merry Old England, I made another batch of scones this morning. Last time I posted about the King Arthur Blueberry Sour Cream<\/strong> scone mix, and mentioned I normally get the ‘plain’ kind. So here are the pictures of the King Arthur Cream Tea<\/strong> Scones. Yummy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

There are two suggested ways to prepare these scones, for the cream method add 1 egg and 3\/4 cup of heavy cream to the mix. The other is the traditional method, for which you cut in butter and add some milk. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today I went the cream route because at 6am I was feeling a bit lethargic. I think the butter method produces a more moist scone, which is my personal preference. I will say I preferred the texture of the blueberry scones, which I used the butter method for.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

So, why am I so lazy that I need to buy my flour and baking soda and sugar already sifted together instead of taking the 6 minutes to do it myself? <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I dunno! There’s something just so easy and relaxing about whipping out a box… like making bisquick pancakes. Maybe I’ll make a bunch of dry mix and put it in containers… some day. It’s on the list. \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

    Oh, and the divine lemon curd that we slathered all over these babies? Post on that is upcoming.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
