How do you serve rolls?

rolls are usually served with butter, jam or clotted cream.Clotted cream is delicious, but pretty hard to find in the US. If you see it, take some! Otherwise, you want to plan a trip abroad.
Scones also taste delicious with honey, whipped cream or even lemon curd!
We often enjoy these chocolate chip scones in the morning with tea or coffee or as a snack.
