Lemon Scones

2 C. flour 5 TBS.Sugar 1 TBS baking powder 1/4 tsp salt 1 TBS lemon zest 6 TBS cold butter , cut up 1 egg, beaten 1/2 c. milk 1 TBS vanilla ext. 1 egg beaten, brushed on top of scones

Preheat oven to 400, In med. bowl, combine flour, baking powder,salt and lemon zest.Cut in butter pieces until mixture is crumbly.

In a seperate bowl, combine egg, milk, and vanilla. Add to dry ingrediants and mix just until the dough forms a ball.

Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead only a few times. Roll out to 1/2 inch thickness.

Place on ungreased cookie sheet.

Scones can be cut out in any shape you would like...use a biscuit cutter, heart cookie cutter...etc...I like to keep mine in a large circle and score the dough into 8 wedges...do not cut the whole way through. Coat top of scone with last beaten egg and some extra sugar if you would like. Bake 10-15 minutes or until light golden brown.
