Transfer the cooked scones to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving. (2 minutes)
For an extra touch of richness, brush the tops of the scones with melted butter or buttermilk before cooking.
If you don't have buttermilk, you can substitute it with a mixture of 1½ cups milk and 1½ tablespoons lemon juice or white vinegar. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
These scones are best served warm, on the day they are made. However, they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
Feel free to experiment with different flavor additions, such as dried cranberries, raisins, or a sprinkle of lemon zest.
