These scones were good, but not great. They were a little too crumbly for my taste.

These scones were a bit dry, but they were still good. I think I would have preferred them with more butter or milk.

These scones were good, but they were a little too dense for my taste. I think I would have preferred them with more baking powder.

I've made scones many times before, but this recipe is the best one I've tried. The scones were light and fluffy, with a perfect golden brown crust. I used a mix of white and whole wheat flour, and they turned out perfectly.
