Cinnamon Date Scones

In a large bowl, combine the flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, baking powder and salt.

Cut in butter until the mixture resembles fine crumbs. Stir in dates.

Combine eggs and milk; stir into crumb mixture just until blended (dough will be soft).

Turn onto a lightly floured surface. Gently knead dough 10 times. Pat into a 9-in. x 6-in. rectangle. Using a floured knife, cut into six 3-in. squares; cut each square diagonally in half.

Place on a greased baking sheet.

Combine the cinnamon and remaining sugar; sprinkle over scones.

Bake at 400° for 12-14 minutes or until lightly browned.

Remove to a wire rack.

Serve warm.
