(I have had to use more cream usually by about 1/4 cup.)On a lightly floured surface, knead dough 6-7 times still smooth. Divide in half and pat into two 6 inch rounds. Cut into 4 wedges. Place rounds 2 inches apart on cookie sheet. Bake at 400 degrees for

Mix powdered sugar and orange juice,then drizzle over warm scones. Best served warm. Makes 8 large scones.
Kitchen tip: you can combine first seven ingredients and store in air tight bowl. Then in the morning add the cream and folow recipe from there.
Grate orange peel, then juice orange for frosting.
