STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM SCONES

Strawberries and Cream Scones image

I took a leap and veered from Mom's original shortcake recipe to create this scone recipe with cream and strawberries. Instead of a short biscuit, I made light sweet-cream scones for the shortcake part. The difference was delightful! -Martha Laviolette, South Rockwood, Michigan
