I think I would skip the chopped almonds in the dough next time too.

I haven't made these yet but I definitely agree that keeping the insides plain is the best way to enjoy those light, fluffy layers.Lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17185657147547217295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3034743878261895543.post-69963686884657507692011-02-23T12:28:51.102-05:002011-02-23T12:28:51.102-05:00that second picture is so artsy of the unbaked sco...that second picture is so artsy of the unbaked scones. <a href="http://www.buttercreambarbie.com" rel="nofollow">Buttercreambarbie</a>Tiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17079250994113691796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3034743878261895543.post-85810912242299279832011-02-23T12:08:06.851-05:002011-02-23T12:08:06.851-05:00Nancy, I love the picture of the scones on the par...Nancy, I love the picture of the scones on the parchment paper. The baked one also looks soo delicious! So flaky and tall. I only made half the recipe (which made 6 scones) and they were palm sized so maybe I patted them too flat.<br /><br />Mine came out tender then turned to crumbly within a day so I'm thinking I overworked them (forgot to mix in chopped nuts at first too, oops) Either way, great job and I'm glad they were enjoyed!Jeannettehttp://www.thewhimsicalcupcake.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3034743878261895543.post-67073159804213244722011-02-23T08:54:19.815-05:002011-02-23T08:54:19.815-05:00Strawberry plates?

It was fun baking along with Mike and TwD this week. Nice idea to try the scones with and without the chopped almonds. I'll have to try that next time and see which one my husband prefers. I like scones pretty much any which way.Elainehttp://ecalifornialiving.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3034743878261895543.post-46287997669505501452011-02-22T17:57:55.374-05:002011-02-22T17:57:55.374-05:00First, as always, I love your china!

It didn't even occur to me to play around with this recipe, but I think next time I'll take your advice and leave the almonds for the top only.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07434478481997247753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3034743878261895543.post-43780122484187748932011-02-22T17:35:53.188-05:002011-02-22T17:35:53.188-05:00I'll definitely be making these again!

I purposely used sliced for a lot of things - chopped whole almonds just seem to "crunchy" sometimes! Thank you for the nice compliments - I always appreciate your diligent "experiments"! So informative! It was a pleasure baking along this week!mike509https://www.blogger.com/profile/06473835156679951300noreply@blogger.com
