"You can use any dried fruit for these tender scones, but my favorite is a mix of dried cranberries and golden raisins," says Della Dunsieth of New Castle, Pennsylvania. "Don't overmix or you'll have a hard, dense scone."

These scones were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

These scones were a bit more dense than I expected, but they were still very good. I think I would add a bit more baking powder next time to make them lighter.
