Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2.5 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
0.5 teaspoon salt
0.333 cup butter
2 eggs, lightly beaten
0.75 cup whipping cream
0.25 cup chopped dried cranberries
0.25 cup finely chopped white chocolate (with cocoa butter) or miniature semisweet chocolate pieces
0.5 teaspoon finely shredded orange peel (optional)
Whipping cream or milk
1 Orange Drizzle
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon orange juice
0.25 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. In a large bowl combine flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Using a pastry blender, cut in butter by repeatedly pushing down through the butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs (rotate the pastry blender and bowl to cut in uniformly). Use the back of a spoon to make a well in the center of the flour mixture; set aside.
  • In a medium bowl combine eggs, the 3/4 cup cream, the cranberries, chopped white chocolate, and, if desired, orange peel. Add egg mixture all at once to flour mixture. Using a fork, stir just until moistened.
  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead dough by folding and gently pressing for 10 to 12 strokes or just until dough comes together (to ensure tender scones, be careful not to knead too much). Divide dough in half. Pat or lightly roll each half into a 6-inch circle. Cut each circle into six wedges.
  • Place wedges 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Brush wedges with additional whipping cream. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes or until golden brown. Cool slightly on baking sheet. Drizzle with Orange Drizzle. Serve warm or at room temperature. Orange Drizzle
  • In a small bowl combine powdered sugar,1 tablespoon of the orange juice, and vanilla. Stir in additional orange juice, 1 teaspoon at a time, to reach a drizzling consistency.

CRANBERRY WHITE CHOCOLATE SCONES



Cranberry White Chocolate Scones image

A very tasty scone recipe that takes no time at all. Though the recipe calls for dried cranberries, I usually use a mix of dried cherries and berries for variety and often use more than the 1/2 cup called for. I also sprinkle turbinado sugar on the top for a bit of crunch. I specify cutting this in sixths, which makes a good size scone, but if you want smaller ones, try eighths and cut down on baking time.
