These scones are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still good.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my scones didn't turn out as light and fluffy as I expected. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

I'm not a big fan of eggnog, but these scones were still really good. The cranberries add a nice tartness that balances out the sweetness of the eggnog.
