Buttery Apricot Scone Recipe

Light and buttery, flaky and soft, these are absolutely wonderful treats.  It was love at first bite for me and I feel certain these will make any mom swoon over brunch.  This Buttery Apricot Scone Recipe is so easy to make – even non-bakers can make this happen.  Remember those flaky canned biscuits?  These come apart in soft, lightly sweet layers just like the old canned biscuits, but taste so much better!

Whisk together the flour and baking powder.  In a 2 cup measure combine the granulated sugar, milk and salt, stir to dissolve.  Cut in ice cold butter until pea-size pieces form then add the milk.  Stir with a fork until the dough comes together.

Roll the dough out on a lightly floured work surface and spread on 2 tablespoons softened butter.  Sprinkle chopped dried apricots evenly over the dough.  Fold the dough like an envelope, in thirds.
