These savory, walnut and Stilton scones from Alice's Tea Cup's cookbook are delicious! They resemble a really nice, flakey, buttermilk biscuit more than a traditional scone. The veins of blue cheese in the scones are strong but not overpowering. The walnuts are relatively soft, as nuts go at least, so they add texture without being so crunchy as to distract from the normal scone texture. The scones are perfect for an afternoon tea if you are also serving a sweet scone (such as pumpkin scones) but they are really lovely on their own with a cup of strong tea or even on the side of tomato soup.
