Basic scone recipe

INGREDIENTS (for 20 scones)
3 cups self-raising flour
1 cup cream
1 cup milk
Pinch salt

PREPARATION
Sift flour and salt well.
Add milk and cream gradually to make a firm but not sticky dough.
Put dough on a board and use a rolling pin to smooth it out, then punch the dough down a few times and roll again.
Use a scone cutter to create the shape.
Place on a cold baking tray and brush tops with a little milk or melted butter.
Bake in a hot oven (220 degrees) for 8 to 10 minutes.
