Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Cut the cold butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Gradually add the heavy cream and lemon juice to the mixture, stirring until the dough comes together.

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it a few times to bring it together.

Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick circle and cut it into 8 wedges.
-
Place the scones on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
-
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown.

While the scones are baking, whisk together the powdered sugar and lemon juice to make the glaze.
