Scones

I was looking to try something different so searched for scone recipes.  I tried this one as I had some yogurt to use up.  I made multiple batches, tried a variety of add ins and altered the amount of sugar in each batch.  What I came up with was keep close to the 1/3 cup of sugar in each batch.  They are not the most flavorful scones I have ever made but they are still good with coffee.  If you want a tried and true recipe, use the authentic English Scones. 2 cups all-purpose flour 1/3 cup sugar 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/4 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 8 tablespoons unsalted butter, frozen 1/2 cup raisins (or dried currants) 1/2 cup sour cream or plain unsweetened yogurt 1 egg In a medium bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Grate butter into flour mixture on the large holes of a box grater; use your fingers to work in butter (mixture should resemble coarse meal). Stir in raisins. In a small bowl, whisk sour cream and egg until smooth. U
