Cream Cheese Scones
Overview
SCONE is a traditional British snack. If classified according to classification, it should belong to the category of simple bread. The most original shape of scone is triangular. Later, the taste of scones continued to develop and improve, and the shape was no longer a simple triangle. It could be made into various shapes such as round, square and even lace. Cheese scones are a great snack for afternoon tea. You can spread it with jam or cheese when eating it, and drink it with a cup of black tea. It’s a simple and delicious afternoon tea!
