    I made these scones last night. They were amazing! I used a little less butter (3 tbsp.) and used 1% milk instead of the heavy cream. I also added a 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips :) Thanks for a great recipe I will use time and time again! - 2/4/09

    Excellent scone. I followed the previous reviewer - skim milk, 5 Tbsp butter, dark choc chunks. I also used 1/2 cup white sugar. Made in a small jelly roll type pan - 12 minutes. - 3/26/11

    Oh man, these are FANTASTIC! Used skim milk, 5 tbsp. of butter and threw in some chocolate chips, making orange-cranberry ones soon. Super versatile and VERY tasty! This one is bypassing the cookbook and going right to my fridge door. I'll be using it a lot, I know that! So fast and easy. - 8/7/10
