Directions
Heart-Shaped Dried Cherry and Chocolate Chip Scones,Wonderful scones from epicurious.com. I didn’t have a 2″ heart-shaped cookie cutter so I just cut the dough into 12 triangular shapes. Very easy and absolutely delicious. I love the combo of orange, vanilla, almond, cherry and chocolate. A must-try!,Hello. I love making various flavored scones I have made scones with cake flour. They were lighter. I was thinking of trying pastry flour also. Any thoughts?,Wonderful! Best scone recipe I’ve tried.
