Introduction
A trip to the Puyallup Fair (The Western Washington Fair) isn't complete without this Northwest tradition! They sell like 80,000 of these a day, topped with a big glob of raspberry jam. They are good cold, but best when they are warm.(And its pronounced "pew-ALLup").
These are NOT low in calories!! I had to make them for my sons schools Mothers Day Tea (of course I sampled one while there) so I needed to calculate out the recipe. They are super delicous though, eat lots of veggies the rest of the day to make up for it!

One of the highlights of going to a fair is getting fresh warm Fisher scones. Thanks for a recipe I can make at home from scratch. Besides eating them warm with raspberry jam, I also like to use them for strawberry shortcake (Split a scone, add loads of mashed strawberries and whipped cream....)
