    List of Ingredients




    2 cups all-purpose flour
    2 Tablespoons sugar
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon baking soda
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    6 Tablespoons butter or margarine.
    1/2 cup "filler" of dried currents or raisins or cranberries or chocolate chips
    1/2 cup buttermilk
    2 eggs

    Recipe



    Method:Preheat over to 425 degree

    In a large bowl combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Using a pastry blender, or two knives scissor fashion, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles course crumbs. Stir in your choice of "filler" until well mixed.

    In a small bowl, combine the buttermilk and eggs. Add this to the dry ingredients and stir to form a soft dough. With floured hands, knead gently and briefly to combine. Divide dough in half.

    On an ungreased cookie sheet, pat each piece of dough into a 6-inch round. Cut each round into six pieces. DO NOT separate. Bake until golden brown, about 12 to 15 minutes. Separate wedges and serve warm.

    Yields: 12 scones
