    List of Ingredients




    2 cups flour
    1 tablespoon sugar
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    4 tablespoons margarine
    1 teaspoon orange zest
    1 cup chopped fresh cranberries
    2 eggs
    1/2 cup milk

    Recipe



    Combine the first four ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Blend in the margarine with a fork until the mixture is crumbly. Using a wooden spoon, stir in the zest and cranberries. In another bowl, beat the eggs well and then stir the milk into them.
    Make a well in the middle of the dry mixture and pour the wet ingredients into it. Stir just until blended. Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead a few times. Pat the dough to a 1/4 inch thickness. Use a butter knife to cut heart shapes. Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet at 400 for 12 to 15 minutes. Makes 8 scones.

    Toppings:
    Quick Strawberry Jam:
    Empty a 16-ounce package of unsweetened frozen strawberries into a glass bowl. Microwave on medium until the berries are hot and soft (about 12 minutes). Stir in a 3-ounce package of strawberry Jell-O.
    Fruit Butter
    Blend 2 parts softened butter and 1 part strawberry, raspberry, or apricot jam.

    Flavored Cream Cheese
    Smooth 4 ounces of cream cheese with a wooden spoon. (Add a tablespoon of yogurt for a creamier consistency.) Fold in a few fresh or defrosted strawberries or raspberries.
