White Chocolate Cherry Scones Recipe
You know my great love for scones recipes by now–and I am in total love with this White Chocolate and Cherry Scones recipe. It’s such a fast and delicious way to start the day!
This recipe for White Chocolate and Cherry Scones may very well be my favorite scone recipe ever. It’s different and sweet and the perfect accompaniment to a cup of coffee or tea.
Our boys really enjoyed these White Chocolate Chip and Cherry Scones too. They did pick out the dried cherries but I think next time I may see what happens if I chop them up a bit. It might be the large size that threw them off!
