Tips:
- Use fresh or frozen glacé cherries for the best flavor and texture. If using frozen cherries, thaw them completely before using.
- Be sure to drain the cherries well before adding them to the scone dough. This will prevent the scones from becoming too wet.
- Gently fold the cherries into the dough. Over-mixing will result in tough scones.
- For a lighter scone, use cold butter. Cut the butter into small pieces before adding it to the dough.
- Don't overwork the dough. Overworking will result in tough scones.
- Bake the scones in a preheated oven. This will help them to rise evenly.
- Let the scones cool slightly before serving. This will allow them to firm up.
