This is an AMAZING recipe for moist scones! It has now become my baseline for all scones toffee, pecans/cinnamon, etc. Buttermilk and keeping the shapes together are critical. The only steps I've done differently are 1) cutting the dough into 2 for smaller portions and 2) giving a light brush of heavy cream before baking. Thank you for finally making me a believer of scones. )

Scones are great with a nice hot cup of tea. They're also very simple to make and this toffee version is really appealing. Instead of the toffee chips, I'd just use the broken pieces of the Heath bar, chocolate and all. I've had toffee scones before at one of the Scottish festivals in the area and I'm looking forward to making up some of these.

This looks like a yummy recipe. I have never seen toffee in a scone before. I can't wait to try it. This certainly adds another dimension to a scone recipe. I guess you could add choc chips too. This idea makes a nice exciting change to the conventional sweet scone recipe where you add in dried fruit.

One of our family friends really loves scones and this seems like a great and simple recipe for someone who hasn't dabbled in the art of making scones yet. I'm not too sure of the toffee flavor but I think caramel bits would work very well. Any other flavor suggestions?

I really love scones and these sound delicious! You can't buy Heath bars in Canada so I guess maybe a Skors bar could be a good substitute? I also wonder if anyone has tried substituting almond milk for the buttermilk to make this recipe dairy free?

I love scones and toffee. I never would have thought to put them together. These would be great to go with tea. If you use a Heath bar, do you smash it and use the chocolate covered pieces or try and get the chocolate out? I think you can just buy Heath baking bits though.
