Instructions: 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

2. Combine the first 6 ingredients (flour through salt) in a bowl; cut in margarine with pastry blender or 2 knives until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add buttermilk and egg, stirring just until moist (dough will be sticky).

3. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; with floured hands, knead lightly 4 times. Pat dough into a 10-inch circle on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Cut dough into 10 wedges, cutting into, but not through, dough. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes or until golden.

4. Combine hot water and coffee granules in a medium bowl; stir well. Add powdered sugar; stir well. Drizzle over into 10 wedges; top each with 1 walnut half.

Yield: 10 servings (serving size: 1 scone).

NOTES :
* Coffee glaze would make great addition to other cakes.

* Skipped walnuts.

* Made into square shape and cut into squares to make smaller servings.

Here are three of my recent favorite recipes. Being on maternity leave allows one more time to test recipes! All are delicious in my book. My hubby, who doesnt follow as lowfat diet like me, loves them, too.
