Cranberry White Chocolate Scones are flakey and moist with a touch of sweet and tart to make them perfectly merry for the holidays!

Cranberry White Chocolate Scones are soooooo tasty!  I just adore dried cranberries and white chocolate together. . . they’re a beautiful pair, don’t you agree?   I fell in love with the combo at Starbucks several years ago~  those Cranberry Bliss Bars are just to-die-for!!  

In fact, I loved them SO much that I created my own version and ‘skinny’ it too but you wouldn’t ever guess it 🙂 

Love the combo as a dessert and whip up a batch of  Starbucks Cranberry Bliss Bars too!!

Cranberry White Chocolate Scones are a lovely addition to your weekend brunch or breakfast! 

Hope your Monday is an awesome one!

Much Love and Peace~
