16 scones
Ingredients
3 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 cup butter, chopped up
1 cup add-ins (raisins, cranberries, nuts, etc.)

Instructions
Mix the first four ingredients. Cut in butter until mixture resembles cornmeal. Add add-ins, then mix in the vanilla and milk. Mix until a soft dough forms. Add more milk if needed. Divide dough into fourths, and shape each fourth into a ball. Roll out to a 1-inch thickness. Cut into 4 pieces. Place on doubled sheet pans (due to temperature). Brush with milk and dust with sugar. Bake at 400 degrees For 15 minutes or until light golden brown.
Awesome scones. Would recommend this for any breakfast.
