CRANBERRY & RAISIN SCONES
Usually I find scones too dry but these are very moist! Serve them warm from the oven with butter & preserves - or make a day ahead & store in an air-tight container. You can use just cranberries or just raisins but I prefer the combination. If you don't have 18% cream (table cream in Canada) you can replace with 1/2 cup of whipping cream (heavy cream) + 1/2 cup of whole milk or 2% milk - but not 1% or skim milk!
