Whisk them together well. Mix the dry ingredients with the butter until the pieces of butter are the size of lima beans. Slowly, pour the wet mixture into the flour-butter mixture and combine. As soon as the dough comes together — with loose flour remaining on the bottom of the bowl — turn off the mixer. Form the scones. Turn over the dough with your hands.
