Classic Scones

This is one of those "choose your own adventure" recipes - giving you some wiggle room/options. The recipe calls for 2 - 8 tablespoons butter, 1 teaspoon to 4 tablespoons granulated sugar, buttermilk, yogurt and milk or whey, and of course there are endless add in combinations. I made half my batch plain with 2 T. sugar and coarse sugar on top, and half with apple and blue cheese. I used 3 T. sugar (but next time would use 4), and around 6 tablespoons butter (which seemed good). They were tasty and I was happy to have a little whole wheat flour in there but I have to say I prefer KA's other scone recipe. I did have to turn my oven down for the last 5 minutes since the bottoms were getting very brown. The course sugar on top is a nice touch.
