HOLIDAY GINGERBREAD SCONES
A friend gave me this recipe for these wonderful gingerbread scones. I then made them for an English friend of mine, and she gave them a definite thumbs up. I've made them without the dried cherries and currants and cut them with biscuit cutters, and they were great also. Make sure you handle the dough lightly; don't overmix.
