This lovely textured scone is from a chef at Hastings House, Canada. The key to its tenderness is not overhandling the dough. Best served with clotted cream, whipped cream with a touch of powdered sugar or marmalade. It's the easiest, best tasting scones I've ever come across.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (195-200 degrees C).
- Mix with a whisk in a big bowl the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar.
- Cut in butter with a butter knife in each hand until mix looks like coarse crumbs.
- Pour in cream and fold in everything until just incorporated. Do NOT overmix.
- If mixture seems a little dry, add a little more cream.
- Fold currants or cranberries into batter.
- Press the dough in 3 or 4 batches on lightly floured board 1 1/4-inch (3cm) thick. Cut into triangles. All in all about 8-16 scones, depending on size (enough for 4 hungry mouths).
- Place scones on ungreased cookie parchment. Brush tops with a bit of cream.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Let cool on a rack.
