Ingredients
  

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed

3/4 cup sweetened dried cranberries, chopped

1/2 cup white chocolate chips

1 large egg

1/2 cup heavy cream

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 cup powdered sugar (for icing)

1 tablespoon milk (for icing)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.

      Cut in Butter: Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, cut in the cold, cubed butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

        Add Cranberries and Chocolate: Gently fold in the chopped dried cranberries and white chocolate chips, being careful not to overmix.

          Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, heavy cream, and vanilla extract.

            Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Use a rubber spatula to gently mix until just combined. Do not overwork the dough.

              Shape the Dough: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat it into a circle about 1-inch thick, then cut into 8 wedges (or use a biscuit cutter for more uniform shapes).

                Bake: Place the scones on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until they are golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.

                  Prepare Icing: While the scones are baking, whisk the powdered sugar and milk together in a small bowl until smooth.

                    Drizzle: Once the scones have cooled slightly, drizzle the icing over them using a spoon or a piping bag.

                      Serve and Enjoy: Serve warm with a cup of tea or coffee, and enjoy the delightful flavors of cranberry and white chocolate!
