Mix until a moist dough is formed Transfer the sticky dough to a heavily floured surface. Gently pat and round it into an 8" circle. Brush the dough with the reserved egg/cream mixture cut out a total of 16 scones (I used a pizza cutter); Space the scones evenly on the prepared pan. Bake the scones for 20 minutes, until they're golden brown. Remove them from the oven, and serve warm. Sift powdered sugar over the scones (optional) If not serving immediately or within a couple of hours, store in an airtight container.
