Method

Cream butter and sugar.

Sift flour and baking powder, and then add to above.

Add heavy cream until dough comes together. Add currants and do not over mix, as scones would be tough.

Roll dough on a floured surface, about an inch thick. Using a 1-1/2 inch cutter, cut round scones with it.

Brush scones with egg wash and bake in a 350° oven for about 12 minutes. Watch so they don't burn.
