I had never made scones before and found these very easy to make. I would add another tablespoon or two of cream because the dough was a bit too dry. I also increased the bacon. :-
These have an excellent, very balanced flavor. Delicious!!

We love bacon so I added double the bacon and double the chives and poured extra cream in to get the right consistency.... YUMMMMM! This is going to be a staple in the house. They were gone as soon as they got out of the oven...

Our family loves bacon, so instead of keeping to just four slices, I cooked off bacon ends, and trimmed off the fat, WONDERFUL!!!!! I needed to add a little extra cream to get the proper texture, but if you are eating scones, you are not counting calories. Also, I used green onions from our garden. Maybe add a little aspargus?

I was looking for a budget saving way to make use of ingrediants I had on hand. This recipe not only was budget friendly, it was also suuuper fast and easy to make.

I had to bring something to a cocktail party and I wasn't sure if scones would be a good idea but they worked perfectly! Instead of making them into large scones I made them into mini-bite sized scones by simply making smaller circles (3.5in in diameter which made the perfect size scone.

I also used "Dubliner" brand Irish Cheddar Cheese which has a very sharp and almost sweet flavor to it. I used 2 cups of cheese instead of 1.5 to put in the dough. I also shredded some more and sprinkled it on top of the scones after I brushed them with buttermilk. This made the scones turn out soo deliciously! The cheese melted to the point of turning golden brownish which gave the scones a good crunch on the outside while inside the bacon, green onions and chunks and shredded bits of melted cheese hit your tastebuds. Wow= The flour to butter ratio was also perfect, it made for a butter scone that was flaky and the best part was that you didn't have to do any kneading at all. I also used buttermilk instead of heavy cream.

I highly recommend this recipe. It'll be a hit. It's like a delicious scone that tastes like a flavor-packed bacon quiche/scone in one bite with the perfect crunch on the outside and buttery flaky goodness on the inside.

I had these scones at a quaint coffee shop, and decided that when I got home I had to look for the recipe. I knew they were good when they said they sell out fast. These scones are delicious! They would be great as a side for a salad, or soup.

Not usually a fan of Emeril recipes, I almost didn't try this. We're all glad I did. Scones usually last us a couple of days, but these went quickly due to nibbling.

Not something I make often, but they're a super treat when I do.

These were a total hit. Excellent! Definitely calls for more cream though to make the dough moist enough. Don't be afraid to splash a little more in. Yum!!!!!!!!!!!

Everyone loves the smell of baked dishes. This one was a huge hit with the building crew next door.
