  Preheat oven to 375F (190C).  Grease a baking sheet; set aside.  Sift 
  flour, baking powder and salt into a medium-size bowl; stir in sugar.  In a 
  large bowl, thoroughly mix potatoes and 1 1/2 tablespoons melted butter 
  with a fork.  Add dry ingredients and mix to form a soft dough.  Turn out 
  onto floured surface.  Roll out with a floured rolling pin or pat dough 
  with your hands to make a round about 1/2-inch thick.  Cut into rounds with 
  a 2-inch fluted or plain cookie cutter.  Place 1 to 1 1/2 inches apart on 
  baking sheet; brush tops with remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons melted butter. 
  Bake about 20 minutes or until light brown.  Split and serve warm with 
  butterand honey.  Makes about 10 scones.
