The secret to perfect scones is cold ingredients. Chill your milk and butter before mixing them together for the best teatime nibbles.
The key to making perfect scones is working quickly, so that the butter doesn't soften too much. Always use butter straight from the fridge and use chilled milk as well. If you have a food processor process the flour, sugar, salt and cold butter until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Use a round-ended table knife to stir in the milk and water.
