Ingredients:

  • lemon curd:
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • scones:
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tbsp poppy seeds
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/3 cup cold butter
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • additional sugar

Directions:

  1. In a heavy saucepan or top of a double boiler, beat eggs and sugar. Stir in butter, lemon juice and peel. Cook and stir over low heat or simmering water for 15 minutes or until mixture reaches 160° and is thickened. Cover and refrigerate until chilled (may be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 week).
  2. For scones, combine the flour, sugar, poppy seeds, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a bowl. Cut in butter until mixture resembles fine crumbs. Combine milk and lemon juice; stir into crumb mixture just until blended (dough will be soft).
  3. Turn dough onto a floured surface; knead gently six times. Shape into a ball. Pat dough into an 8-in. circle; cut into eight wedges. Separate wedges and place 1 in. apart on a greased baking sheet. Sprinkle with additional sugar.
  4. Bake at 425° for 12-15 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from pan to wire rack. Serve warm with the lemon curd. Yield: 8 scones.
