Glazed Blueberry Scones
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tbsp baking powder
2 tbsp white sugar
1/4 cup + 1 tbsp soft margarine
1 to 1 1/3 cups heavy cream (as required to hold together)
1 cup fresh blueberries
Glaze:
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 cup sifted icing sugar
1/2 lemon, zested
2 tsp soft margarine
Scones:
Sift together dry ingredients. Cut in margarine until crumbly. Add cream (1+ cups) as needed and gently gather together. Carefully fold in blueberries. Turn out on to counter and pat into a circle, 1 1/4-inch thick. Cut into wedges and place on a cookie sheet sprayed with cooking spray, with lots of room between scones. Bake at 400 degrees until lightly browned and a skewer inserted comes out clean. Cool slightly and drizzle with glaze.
Glaze:
Combine all ingredients in a microwave-safe dish and cook on high 30 seconds to 1 minute, until dissolved. Whisk smooth, and drizzle over scones. Note: These are very flaky and best served the same day they are made.
