Cut together butter, flour, salt and baking powder. Add sugar and raisins.
Make well in center of the mixture; add egg and small amount of milk. If
mixture appears to be too dry, add more milk. Blend to a nice, smooth
dough. Roll out on floured board to One half inch thick. Use cutter with 2inch
fluted edge. Place on lightly greased baking sheet, brush with beaten egg.
Bake in 350degree F oven for 1015 minutes. Center of bottom should be
lightly colored. Serve hot.

Note: I copied this recipe couple of years ago from a newspaper;
supposedly, those *are* the scones served in the Palace. If I remember
right, the recipe came with an article about a guy who used to be cook
there.
