I'm not a big fan of cranberries, but I still enjoyed these scones. The eggnog flavor was very strong and the scones were very moist.

These scones were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more butter next time.

These scones were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
