My good friend gave me a cookbook for Christmas this year (and yes, I opened it already, but with her permission), and there were some scone recipes in it that I just had to try out. The first one, a cherry-almond scone recipe which was pretty good. I didn’t take pictures this time, so you’ll…

Dark Chocolate Chip Scones
Apparently, I’m on a chocolate scone kick, as this was the recipe that jumped out at me from Tea and Crumpets. I’ve never made a chocolate scone that tasted as good as it looked, and this was no exception. So after this attempt, I’m still in search of the ideal chocolate scone.*I altered this recipe, adding…
Triple Chocolate Chunk Scones

Ingredients:2 cups all-purpose flour1/3 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar1 1/2 tsp baking powder1/4 tsp baking soda1/4 tsp salt1/4 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cut into 1-inch pieces1/2 cup buttermilk1 large egg1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract3 oz bittersweet chocolate chunks3 oz milk chocolate chips3 oz white chocolate chipsDirections:1….
Raspberry-Filled Almond Scones
This recipe uses Raspberry Preserves to create a filled scone. I love almonds, so when I saw this recipe in Simply Scones by Leslie Weiner and Barbara Albright, I just had to try it. No question about it. In fact, it was the first recipe I tried out of the small, but potently-scone-recipe-packed book. Let’s…
Cinnamon Roll Scones
What a wonderful experiment! I had some Crème Fraîche in the fridge that really needed to be used up and decided to experiment this morning. Using what I had around, I threw together these cinnamon chip scones which I have dubbed “cinnamon roll scones” because they tasted and smelled like cinnamon rolls to me. I…
Cranberry-Orange Scones
Honestly, this picture does not do these scones justice. Too bad I ate them all and can’t take another… Um…there are no words to describe how delectable these were. And I’m absolutely certain it has something to do with the 10 tablespoons of butter it calls for… At least the buttermilk was low fat…So, let’s just…
Cream Tea Scones with Currants
A firm, crispy scone with a hint of sweetness in the Pearl sugar on top I was pleasantly surprised with these scones. They turned out with a beautiful sheen to them, and, coupled with the pearl sugar on top, a hint of sweetness. Since the recipe called for two eggs, I was a bit wary….
Almond Buttermilk Scones
I don’t know about you, but I love almond flavoring. I’m not a big fan of nuts, but almond flavor, I absolutely adore. I made this recipe up in the hopes of getting an almondy scone that would make my mouth water. This one, I think, has potential. Give it a try and tell me…
Fresh Cherry Scones
Baking scones is always more enjoyable when there’s someone to share them with. And, it helps when I get a taste-tester who enjoys partaking in the results of a new scone recipe. Every filled scone recipe I have made prior to this one has turned out soupy and disappointing. But, finally, I managed to get…
Whole Wheat Cinnamon Chip Scones
Crumbly and just a hint of sweetness. Let’s face it, scones aren’t really healthy. All that heavy cream, butter and white flour…three things we’re told are ultimately unhealthy. So, in an effort to make things a little bit better, I changed things up a bit. Whole wheat flour is supposed to be healthier, so I replaced…
