This scone recipe from former staffer and one of Rach's go-to bakers, Grant Melton, calls for red velvet cake mix, but you can use whatever kind of cake mix you prefer.
Preheat oven to 400°F.
In a medium bowl, mix together cake mix, buttermilk and egg. The mixture should be pretty dry but come together when pressed with your hands. If it’s too dry, add a little more buttermilk.
