Scones are a quick treat in the morning with coffee or in the afternoon with tea. To reduce the calories, I replaced the half-and-half called for in the original recipe with whole milke. It's still pretty high because of the butter, so indulge with care!Grating the butter gives the same effect as cutting it into the flour mixture without the difficulty. Put butter, plate, and grater in the freezer for about 10 minutes to chill down before grating.
