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~
