Cranberry Scones
“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.”

Made recipe as described yesterday - Delicious! Ingredients make more for 6 portions as we found size to be just a bit filling - Thanks for sharing
So good! Added more cranberries, more salt, and less sugar to suit my own taste. Also cut the pieces into 1/8ths instead of 1/4s, again personal preference. This is a great foundation for baking scones!
Perfect recipe and directions! Tender and perfect taste and texture. Our bakery wants $1 for scone like this that is much smaller.
Delicious! Just enough sweetness. I added a few blueberries too.
These scones are perfection. They are tender, delicious, melt in your mouth!
My husband loves these scones. Very tender and equally good with cranberries or raisins.
Very good! First time ever making scones, and they worked perfectly!
I just made this and they didn’t turned of right. They needed more milk and since you can only knead it for 6-8 times, they were not mixed all the way! Not making it again ????

I double the recipe and if looks like they needed more milk, and since I could only knead it 6-8 times, the dough was not completely formed! The flavor is nice but I don’t think I’ll be making these again.
My family loves these, usually double the recipe. We are from a family of bakers, and these past the test. I usually swirl a plain powdered sugar glaze on top! Yum!
these came out great and i am at 9600 feet
