The one in the upper left hand corner tried hard to be an American biscuit.

The scones they sell here are dry and hard. Those look moist and flakey, like a biscuit.

YUM - except the recipe uses really weird measurements :nana

I'd add some lemon zest too, and maybe even brush them with a little lemon juice and sugar glaze when baking (instead of the milk).

They are soft and fluffy. That batch disappeared within five minutes of being put out at work, I gave the crew some clotted cream and plum jam to go with them, or a sort of cream tea really.

A cream tea (also known as a Devonshire tea, Devon cream tea or Cornish cream tea) is a form of afternoon tea light meal, consisting of tea taken with a combination of scones, clotted cream, and jam. Traditionally a speciality of Devon and Cornwall, cream teas are offered for sale in tea rooms in those two counties, as well as in other parts of England, and elsewhere in the Commonwealth.

Yes, I love a good cream tea. My Mom used to make scones for us when we came home from school, I still adore them..

And, we've had the clotted cream/jam correct order discussion here at least once before. For the record, it's cream, then jam.

Oh, I added sultanas and a little dessicated coconut to mine.
