Nice and crusty on the outside yet soft in the inside BUT we all agreed that my usual scones are better than these. Lily's scones are just too dense. They're very filling and too floury-smelling. Scones are known to be a "force to reckon with" if you bake. There's always the issue of over-handling etc. But I'm pretty sure I handled it as little as I could and it did rise beautifully with satisfying results. Maybe it'll be better with dried fruits in them and cut smaller instead of using the 6.5cm cutter as suggested. No one asked for seconds...
