Next stir in the sugar and salt, then take a knife and use it to mix in the milk little by little. Now flour your hands a little and knead the mixture to a soft dough -- adding a drop more milk if it feels at all dry. (Tip: Try not to over handle it or make it too wet). Turn dough out onto a floured pastry board and roll it out to a thickness of not less than 3/4 inch using a lightly floured rolling pin (you can just pat it if you wish). Take a 1-1/2 or 2" biscuit cutter and cut out scones ~- tap straight down to cut, do not twist. Reshape the trimmings and cut again until all the dough is used. Place the scones on a greased baking sheet, dust each one with a little extra flour and bake near the top of the oven for 12-15 minutes, should be a golden brown. Cool on a wire rack and eat them slightly warm. Always eat as fresh as possible as they go stale quickly. Suggested toppings: butter and strawberry jam (or variations thereof). Raisins can also be added before cooking, this would increase the carbohydrate content. NOTES : Nutrition Information: 2.3g Protein; 16.2g Carbohydrate; 0.6g Fiber; 3.1g Fat; 102.5 Calories.
