RASPBERRY SCONES RECIPE
The secret to good raspberry scones is to handle the dough as little as possible and to use cold ingredients to achieve flaky layers; that's about it! These are proper raspberry scones-ones that will heal any bad day, bad week, or like in this case: a broken heart. Have them during the holidays, during a break-up, in the dead of winter, in the middle of summer, at the heart of Spring- they're exceptional.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the butter and rub it into the flour mixture with your fingertips, two butter knives, or a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse meal and no pieces of butter are larger than a pea.
- In a glass measuring cup, beat together the cream, egg, and vanilla. Pour the cream mixture into the flour and butter mixture, and stir until a dough forms.
- Lightly flour a clean work surface and turn out the dough. Scatter the raspberries on top of the dough and gently kneading the raspberries into the dough for 10 seconds, until the raspberries are evenly distributed throughout.Do note that because of the raspberries, the dough will be quite moist at this point; so be sure to lightly flour the work surface as needed to prevent sticking.
- Pat the dough into a square about 3/4 in/2 cm thick and let it rest for 15 minutes. Preheat the oven to 425ºF/220ºC and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Once the oven has preheated, use a knife to cut the dough into 9 squares and put them on the prepared baking sheet. Or use a 2-inch /5cm round cutter or the rim of a glass dipped in flour to punch out circles of dough. Be sure to cut them as closely to one another as possible; you should get 6 rounds, and when you pat the dough back together (it doesn't need to be a square this time), you should be able to get 3 more rounds. Avoid re-rolling the dough during this second stage, as this will result in tough scones.
- In a small bowl, beat together the egg, sugar, and salt. Lightly brush the tops of the dough pieces with the mixture and wait 1 minute until the topping sets. Sprinkle the tops with more sugar (about 1/2 tsp per scone) and bake for 13 to 18 minutes, until the scones are golden brown. Be sure to rotate the pan halfway through baking.
- Allow the scones to sit on the pan for 2 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool slightly for 5 to 10 more minutes before serving.
- Serve the same day with butter, jam, and a delicious warm beverage.

They were so good and when they were done YYuuummmmm...they looked quite easy to make.

RASPBERRY-WHITE CHOCOLATE SCONES
In this scone recipe, I used dried raspberries to add intense flavor and replaced some of the butter with grated white chocolate. The result? Perfectly textured, tender, and light scones that weren't too delicate or crumbly. Definitely some of the best I've ever had! Serve with a nice cup of tea.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C).
- Line a baking sheet with a silicone liner.
- Place fresh raspberries about 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 4 hours, then turn oven off, leaving the berries inside for 8 hours, or overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone liner.
- Roughly chop dried raspberries into smaller pieces and measure out ½ cup for this recipe. Reserve any extra for another use.
- Grate white chocolate on the fine side of a grater until you have ½ cup.
- Whisk 2 cups flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder together in a mixing bowl. Grate cold butter into the flour mixture, tossing every so often to coat it with flour so it doesn't start to clump. When all butter has been added, work it into the flour with a pastry blender. Add grated white chocolate and toss with a fork to incorporate.
- Whisk ¾ cup milk and sour cream together in a liquid measure, then pour that into the flour mixture. Mix with a fork until everything just barely comes together to form a shaggy dough.
- Transfer dough to a generously floured work surface and without kneading, push and pack it together with your hands until it holds its shape, adding a little flour if it's too sticky. Press dough into a rectangle, about ¾-inch thick, and roughly twice as long as it is wide.
- Sprinkle dried raspberries evenly over the dough. Spread berries out almost to the edges and press them into the dough gently. Using a bench scraper, lift one third of the dough from one of the shorter edges and fold it in over the center third; press it down and square off the edges. Repeat with the other side so your scone dough is three layers thick.
- Cut the rectangle in half with the bench scraper, then cut each half into 2 triangles. Transfer scones to the prepared baking sheet.
- Whisk egg and 1 tablespoon milk together. Brush egg wash over each scone and sprinkle with sugar.
- Bake in the upper center of the preheated oven until browned, about 25 minutes.
- Quickly and carefully transfer to a rack and let cool completely before serving, about 30 minutes.

Tips:
- Choose the right raspberries: Fresh or frozen raspberries can be used in this recipe. If using frozen raspberries, thaw them before using.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the scones tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the scones rise and keep their shape.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the scones: A sharp knife will help you get clean, even cuts.
- Don't overcrowd the baking sheet: Leave some space between the scones on the baking sheet so they have room to rise.
- Bake the scones until they are golden brown: The scones are done baking when they are golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
