RAISIN SCONES
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Combine 4 cups flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, the baking powder, and salt in an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Blend in the cold butter at the lowest speed and mix until the butter is in pea-sized pieces. Combine the eggs and heavy cream and quickly add to the flour/butter mixture. Combine until just blended. Combine the raisins and 1 tablespoon flour and then add to the dough and mix quickly. The dough may be a bit sticky.
- Dump the dough out onto a floured surface and be sure it is well combined. Flour your hands and a rolling pin and roll the dough out to 3/4-inch to 1-inch thick. You will see lumps of butter in the dough. Cut into squares with a 4-inch cutter and then cut in half diagonally to make triangles. Place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Brush the scones with the egg wash and sprinkle with sugar. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the outsides are crisp and the insides are done.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Combine everything except the half-and-half until just combined.
- Do not over mix. (Mixture will not be creamed, just mixed together.)
- Quickly pour in 1 1/4 cups of the half-and-half while mixing quickly.
- If the dough appears at all dry add the remaining 1/4 cups of half & half until just combined.
- Again, do not over mix.
- Turn the dough out onto a very well floured surface.
- If the dough is very sticky, flour the top of the dough also.
- Pat the mixture into a layer 3/4 to 1-inch thick.
- Using a 2-inch diameter round cutter, cut out the scones, dipping the cutter into flour each time between cuts.
- Place each scone, as cut, onto a parchment paper covered sheet pan leaving 2 to 3 inches between each scone.
- This should make 12 round scones. (You can also form dough into rectangular shape and cut with a knife into 12 square or triangle scones.).
- Bake for about 18 minutes or until golden brown on both the top and bottom of scones.
