If you choose low calorie or alternative sweetener like stevia, please check their conversion recommendations. Add 6 tablespoons of chilled unsalted soy margarine chopped into small pieces. Gently work the flour-butter mixture with a pastry blender until the dough looks like coarse meal. Tip: Overworking the dough makes scones tough or heavy.
