    DH does an AWESOME date and lemon scone recipe he got off the Masterchef website. Sorry I don't have the recipe. It freezes really well so you can just take one out, thaw it and away you go!

    Google lemonade scones. My dad used to make them and they never failed. They are really easy and great to make with the kids

    Hehehe I've started scone cravings The ones I did yesterday worked really well, and mine usually never rise properly. I did as Rivlas suggested, just googled lemonade scones, and used the first one that came up on the Taste website.

    Recipe was:
    1/2 tsp Salt
    2 cups SR Flour (sifted)
    1/4 cup Castor Sugar
    1/2 cup Thick Cream
    1/2 cup Lemonade
    2 tbs Milk

    Preheat the oven to 220°C. Lightly grease a baking tray.
    Place the flour, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Add the cream and lemonade and mix to form a soft dough. Turn out onto a lightly floured workbench and knead lightly until combined. Press the dough with your hands to a thickness of about 2cm. Use a 6cm round cutter to cut out 8 scones, place on baking tray and brush the tops with some milk. Bake for 10-15 minutes until lightly browned

    This recipe makes 8, so I doubled it, and they're delicious!
