Yield Makes about 9 scones

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 cups sifted cake flour (not self-rising; sift before measuring)
1/2 cup sugar plus more for sprinkling
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 sticks cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 cup dried cherries
1 large egg
1 cup heavy cream plus additional for brushing
Equipment:
a 3-inch round cookie cutter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F with rack in middle.
  • Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Scatter butter on top and blend with your fingertips until mixture resembles coarse meal. Mix in dried cherries.
  • Whisk together egg and cream in a small bowl, then fold into flour mixture until dough just comes together (dough will be quite delicate).
  • Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface. With floured hands, press into a 1-inch-thick rectangle. Cut out rounds with cutter and arrange 2 inches apart on a parchment-paper-lined baking sheet. Gather scraps together and cut out additional scones.
  • Brush tops of scones with cream and sprinkle lightly with sugar. Bake scones, rotating baking sheet halfway through, until tops are golden, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool on a rack about 10 minutes before serving.

These scones were a bit too dry for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I would add more butter or milk next time.

These scones were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would use less sugar next time. The dried cherries were a nice addition.
