Cranberry White Chocolate Scones

This was one of our favorite holiday treats to make this year! These scones were light and fluffy, with the right amount of tartness from the cranberries and sweetness from the chocolate! We would highly recommend making these Holiday scones, especially if it includes a warm cup of coffee.

When we first made these scones, we were staying at a rental house; however, the oven didn’t have an numbers on the oven. So the temperature of the oven was kind of a risk, but it all worked out in the end. We only burned a few…..

Enjoy!

INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 CUPS ALL PURPOSE FLOUR

  • 1/3 CUP SUGAR

  • 1 TABLESPOON BAKING POWDER

  • 1/2 TEASPOON SALT

  • 1/2 CUP BUTTER FROZEN AND GRATED

  • 1 CUP HEAVY WHIPPING CREAM

  • 1/3 CUP SISTERS DRIED CRANBERRIES

  • 1/3 CUP WHITE CHOCOLATE CHIPS

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Freeze the butter for at least 15-20 minutes, then grate using a four sided box grater. Add butter to flour mixture, and stir together with a fork. Make a well and pour in whipping cream, dried cranberries, and white chocolate chips. Stir until most of the mixture is moistened. Using your hands, press the mixture together in the bowl, then dump onto a pastry board or wax paper.

Gently press dough together and form into a 10” by 5” log. Using a dough cutter or sharp knife, cut into four equal pieces. Cut each diagonally to form about 8 triangle shaped scones. Place onto a greased pan and bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
