Expert Tips

You can freeze scones for up to two months. Just be sure to wrap them tightly in aluminum foil or freezer bags.

Drizzle scones with melted white chocolate for a coffee-shop finish.

As you can see it is pictured with a divine drizzled frosting / icing. But this recipe only calls for sprinkle of sugar on top before baking, and lacked the sweetness I desired. Easy fix! most stores carry a drizzle type icing in the baking goods ( I believe it is even Betty crocker brand) I simply heated it just a bit for easier use and drizzled it on the scones then used the very fine side of my grate and added just a tad of lemon zest... and YUM. If you like a sweeter scone just dress this up because the scone itself turns out perfect!

I love to try new scone recipes. Some turn out too dry for my liking but not this one. I will definitely be making this again. The combination of blueberries and lemon is a real winner.
