Recipe Comments and Reviews Sort by: Reviews General Comments View All » Rating I made these scones twice and they are excellent they are now my favorite. I am 71 so have tasted a lot of scones but these are tops. Posted October 19, 2015 by Edna Rating My 91 yr. old friend made these this morning, and heated them for us this afternoon with our tea. WOW! She and I have had "a cup'a" almost every week or so for the last 6 years. She is a fine baker, and often makes scones using various recipes. These were THE BEST EVER in six years! She told me where to fine this recipe, and I shall be making them for breakfast in the morning. Thank you Miss V, and thank you Land 'o Lakes. This is what scones are supposed to be. Posted February 13, 2015 by Jan Rating This is a wonderful breakfast i pop it in the oven and enjoy my ride to work :3 Posted May 30, 2014 by Lori Rating Excellent!! First attempt at making scones and they are great. I made no changes to the recipe, other than adding a quarter cup more cranberries. Very, very easy. Posted January 23, 2014 by Jenny Rating This is by far my favorite scone recipe. I use it all the time. I've made a few variations to make different scones. For example, I leave out the cranberries and orange zest but add almond flavoring, slivered almonds and dried cherries at times. I'll also do something similar but with dark chocolate chips and no almonds. My friends and family love this recipe as do I! Posted August 15, 2013 by Lu W. Rating This recipe looked so good I just thought I would like to try it. Posted April 02, 2012 by lorene Rating Excellent treat for company and easy to prepare. Posted March 18, 2012 by JoAnne Rating This is an excellent recipe for scones! It also works well with other fruit besides cranberries. I just made a batch of strawberry. I sprinkle them with sugar, and don't use the icing. Posted July 19, 2011 by Diane Rating Very easy and very good. I think next time I might drizzle them with some melted white chips. Posted September 22, 2010 by Kala Rating I didn't have enough half and half, so used some sour cream. I don't see how they could be any better. Posted July 04, 2010 by marilynn Rating They turned out perfect! Easy, quick and delicious! I used 4 TBSP of heavy whipping cream in place of half and half to make them extra rich and fattening!. I've already passed this recipe on. They make a perfect afternoon treat. Posted January 18, 2010 by Libby Rating I made this recipe in my counter top convection toaster oven! It came out Fantastic! YUM! Posted January 16, 2010 by Diane Rating With simple ingredients and recipe, it comes out perfect. Posted September 27, 2009 by Saima Rating The great thing about this recipe was all the ingredents were things I have on hand! As the nearest store selling mandrine oranges and dried cranberries is 25 miles from home. Posted January 15, 2009 by bonnie Rating I made it without the frosting and it was still delicious. Posted December 27, 2008 by Andree Rating These scones are terrific. My friends love them and ask me to make them whenever we are having a get together. Posted November 05, 2008 by Julia Rating Cooking time should be extended to 5 - 7 minutes.
