Orange Cranberry Cream Scones image

This is a light and flavorful scone. I was never a big scone eater because the ones I have had were like hockey pucks. This one changed my mind. The tricks are to NOT overwork the dough and NOT to over cook them. These are easy to throw together and taste out of this world.

I'm allergic to oranges, so I used lemon zest instead. The scones were still very tasty.

I baked these scones for a little too long and they were a bit overdone. But they still tasted good!
