Cranberry-White Chocolate Scone

Hi everybody! If you've never liked scones, I'm here to convert you!

I hated scones before because they are often dry and flavourless. I wasn't a fan until I tried Thomas Haas' cranberry-orange scones ( soo delicious..). The perfect scone should have a crusty layer with a moist middle.

I added white chocolate, my latest obsession, to balance the tartness of the cranberries in this recipe. You can make your own flavour by adding orange peels, raisens, chocolate chips etc.

p.s instead of the plain yogurt I added, you can substitute it with sour cream or different flavours of yogurt.

Ingredients:

( make 16)

- 3.5 cups of flour

- 1/3 cup of sugar

- 25g of baking powder

- 1/4 tsp of salt

- 125g of butter

-----------------------

- 1 cup of milk

- 1/2 cup of plain yogurt

------------------------

- 1/2 cup of craisins

- 1/3 cup of white chocolate

egg wash:

- 1 egg

- 1 tbsp of milk

I'm so impressed with the butter I bought from States, they come little sticks! Perfect for baking, doesn't require much measurement.

Steps:

1) Sift and combine all dry ingredients

2) Cut in the butter and combine with the dry ingredients with blender or your hand

3) Mix milk with yogurt in a cup, then add it to the butter/flour bowl

4) Add in the white chocoalte, crasins; blend in with the spatula until there are no dry ingredients left at the bottom

5) Make the dough in your desired sizes, don't put them too closely with each other, they will rise.

6) Brush on the egg wash

7) Bake at 350 about 15 to 20 mins until top and bottom and slightly golden.
