These scones were delicious! I followed the recipe to a T and they came out wonderful! I got up this morning and made a batch to bring to work and left half plain and the other half with orange glaze. I brought strawberry jelly for those who might want some. They were gone in a blink of an eye. The orange glazed ones were gone first. They were very light, not heavy like most scones you get. Remind you of a biscuit texture. Thanks Paula, I'll be serving these next weekend at my ladies brunch. Jeannie

Perfectly delicious the way this is written, although I tend to agree on the amount of baking powder being a bit less...I like the way they puff up and are just a bit lighter than a traditional ENGLISH scone.I have, in the past used cream cheese instead of the butter, but with sour cream it is sort of redundant here...
I agree with the other commenters that this is a great base to add things to. The FIRST thing that came to mind was a tsp. vanilla, about 1 T. orange zest, and a nice orange juice glaze for the top made from orange juice, a little soft butter, and powdered sugar... The addition of dried cherries and pistachios would be excellent, too along with a touch of almond extract....I SHOULDN'T give away all my secrets, because I have a cookbook in the works..Comming to a store near you as soon as I can get the right publisher!!

A very simple and easy recipe. Unfortunately they were horrible.
Bitter--------To much baking powder.
Should it be 2 tsp. baking powder and not 2 tbs.

They weren't as dry and flaky as traditional scones. They were still yummy for being a different kind of scone. They also didn't rise as tall as traditional scones, so you couldn't fill them with jam or anything, bummer!

I'm sure if I'd seen how she cooked it on her show and how the scones were supposed to look, they may have came out better.

Having been a lover of scones since childhood, I was taken completely by surprise, with these.
Easy to make, and far lighter than any scone I've tasted, these are a must make! Great taste of a scone without being a heavy weight! Thanks Paula

I can see using this recipe for years to come. It was easy to make, even without a food processor, and oh so rich. I actually had some homemade strawberry fig preserves on hand that I used and cream cheese. Great for meetings or to take to a gathering.
