These scones really ARE the best scones I've ever had, and I used to be a professional pastry chef. I made a few minor changes to adjust them to what I was looking for- I added vanilla, substituted white and semi-sweet chocolate chips for the currants, and left off the egg wash. English scones contain more leavening agent than you would normally use for this amount of flour but you want them to rise high in a short time. And you don't really add add-ins into the dough like in the US version. British scones are preferred plain, sometimes a few raisins are added but that's very rare.
