I'm allergic to cheddar cheese, but I think I could still enjoy these scones if I used a different type of cheese.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my scones didn't turn out as light and fluffy as I expected. Not sure what went wrong.

These scones were a bit too dense for my taste, but the flavor was good.

I've tried many scone recipes, but this one is by far the best. The scones are light and fluffy, with a perfect balance of basil and cheddar.
