Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 425 F and prepare baking sheet by lightly greasing or covering with parchment paper.
2. Combine flour and baking powder in a medium size bowl. Add butter and rub together until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Stir in the sugar.

3. Whisk egg and milk together in a separate bowl. Stir most of the egg mixture into the flour, reserving about 1 tablespoon. Mix to a soft dough. It's okay if the dough is a bit crumbly. 

4. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface, lightly knead and then roll out to ½ inch thickness.
5. Using a Mickey Mouse cookie cutter, cut out scones and place on prepared baking sheet.
6. Brush the tops of the scones with the reserved egg mixture. Bake for 7-10 minutes or until scones are a pale golden brown.
7. Cool scones on a wire rack. Serve with clotted cream and jam.
