DRIED CRANBERRY SCONES
I go on vacation with my best friend to Michigan every July. Her cousin is allowed to come, too-but only if she brings her special cherry scones! I make them with cranberries for the holidays. Don't try to double this recipe. If you need more than 12, make two separate batches of dough. -Sherry Leonard, Whitsett, North Carolina

Fresh, warm, buttery "biscuits" with dried cranberries, drizzled with a little bit of a sweet orange glaze. My kids and grandkids (and I) loved 'em! Took a couple of different scone recipes and modified as I went along.
