I'll admit it: I LOVE scones. After having to make over 200 of them for my ladies tea at church, I wanted to try MJF's Orange Peel and Walnut Scones.
Another confession: I am a batter taster. I always taste my batter before baking anything. Now, I usually don't like walnuts in my stuff, so I took most of the big chunks of walnut out. When I tried the batter, I wasn't very impressed. I tried a piece of the orange peel, which was good, and I spooned the batter onto the cookie sheet.
I took them out of the oven, and immediately put them on the cooling rack. I walked away, and a few minutes later walked back into the kitchen.
The first thing that hit me was the smell. Those scones smell DIVINE. I went over to the cooling rack, picked one up, and tried it.
I then ate two more.
These scones are WONDERFUL. Seriously. They're buttery, but light with a perfect crust. I LOVE these. I may try scones with the Budget Mix to see if I can re-create the same results-they were awesome!

Starbucks and sushi to green fried tomatoes and corn pudding-I wouldn't change it for the world.
