Wow, these look good. I love your old scone recipe so now I'll have to try these! And I love your use of "dang!" LOL
I haven't made scones in so long...working too much :) but my schedule has s l o w e d down so these are on the to do list!
You are killing me! Yumm-o!
Catie,
Do you think this would work with all coconut milk and no heavy cream? I've got a great vegan butter substitute. Hoping I can veganize these!
emily, yes! i was thinking that as i was making these. i used full-fat coconut milk, and it was VERY thick. i totally think it would work. you might even be able to sub some of the butter for coconut oil, but i've never tried that. vegan powers: VEGANIZE!!! ♥
Thanks Catie. Coconut oil is a great idea too! I'll let you know if it works, but I won't be making them for a while.....: )
