Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups all purpose flour
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 2 ½ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 6 Tbsp cold butter
  • 6 oz vanilla yogurt
  • 7 Tbsp cream or milk
  • 1 cup dried cherries or craisins
  • ½ cup white chocolate chips
  • Milk and coarse sugar for tops of scones

Instructions
 

  • Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and soda in large bowl. Grate or cut in butter till mixture is crumbly.
  • Combine yogurt and milk and stir into the dry mixture with the cherries and white chocolate. Don't over-mix.
  • Pat dough out on floured surface to about 3/4" think and cut into wedges, circles, (or hearts for Valentine's Day!)
  • Place on cookie sheets lined with parchment or silicone liners. Brush tops with milk and sprinkle with sugar.
  • Bake at 375° for about 18-20 minutes.

Notes

-I was actually out of vanilla yogurt one morning, so I used raspberry instead. It worked fine, but I do prefer the vanilla. You could try different yogurt flavors to see what you like the best.
