scones for two
This quick version is based on the blueberry-vanilla scone recipe that is already on this web-site. It has been reduced for baking in a toaster oven.

blueberry-vanilla scones
"These are the best scones I have ever tasted!" I hear this every time I serve these scones. The original, and unmodified, recipe can be found in "The Professional Pastry Chef". (If you seriously want to learn to bake, then you should get this book.)
I have reduced the amount of creame a bit, replaced the 6 oz. of candied orange peel w/ 8 oz. of dried fruit (though I do sometimes add 2 T. of sugared orange or lemon zest), and clarified (I think) the steps of mixing and shaping the dough.
