TRIPLE CITRUS SCONES
I love the bright and buttery flavor of these tender scones with glaze that soaks in. Serve them with a yummy jam, or try them as a base for strawberry shortcake. -Angela LeMoine, Howell, New Jersey

[email protected]These scones were a hit! They were so light and fluffy, and the citrus flavor was perfect. I made them for a brunch party and they were gone in minutes. I will definitely be making these again.
