This recipe is one of my favorites.  I’ve been making it for years and it’s perfect for this time of year because it calls for fresh strawberries.  The thing to keep in mind when making these scones is that your dough WILL be sticky.  VERY sticky.  If you keep adding flour until they aren’t sticky you will find that they are heavy and hard.  You will put just enough flour on the dough ball so that you can work with them and transfer them to the pan but that’s it.  If you don’t give in to the desire to fix the stickiness you will have the lightest scones you’ve ever tried.

They come together so fast in your food processor that you will be making these every weekend this summer! Try them out and let me know what you think.
