Preheat oven to 400°. Cut the butter into flour,
sugar, lemon peel, baking powder and salt
with a pastry blender in a large bowl until
the mixture resembles crumbs. Gradually stir
the milk into the cream cheese in a small bowl
until smooth. Stir the cream cheese mixture
and the egg into the flour mixture until the
dough leaves the side of the bowl and forms a ball.
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface,
gently roll to coat. Knead 10 times.

Pat or roll dough into a 9" circle on an
ungreased cookie sheet.
Brush with lemon juice and sprinkle with sugar.
Cut into 8 wedges, do not separate.
Bake for 16-18 minutes or until golden brown.
Immediately remove from cookie sheet,
separate the wedges. Serve warm. Makes 8
