I just bought a box of the cranberry orange scone mix. I followed the directions to the letter and they came out horrible! It called for less milk, 1/3 cup, and less butter. It didn't say anything about laying the dough out on flour surface and pressing it into a thick circle. It said scoop the dough out about 1/3 cup 2ins apart. Not knowing what the dough was supposed to look like it was a crumbling mess. Please read the directions and see what you think. I wish I found your post before tempting to make these. This is the first time I've ever made scones. Thank you.
