I could use a tip on the best way to handle the very sticky dough, but the result was delicious anyway. I'm sure I will make this again. I used golden raisins, which I think have a nice sweetness, and skipped the frosting. Might try pecans in place of walnuts next time just to see if it makes a difference -- I like both. Very good!

I love this recipe! These aren't classic scones but they are delicious and perfect to use for mini- scones too. I actually didn't have a carrot cake mix so I used a butter pecan mix and added cinnamon & nutmeg. I really like these! I'm gonna try some chocolate versions and maybe a few others!

I must admit i was sceptical about making these,since it is different from any scone recipe i have used. But to my surprise, they are very good! A big hit, moist and flavorful, i will make them again!
