This recipe adds a touch of luxury to the humble, classic scone. Rich white chocolate and sharp cranberries offer great variety to this baked goodie. A soft delicious texture, serve this moreish treat with thick clotted cream and strawberry jam for an extra sweet finish. Nutella or melted chocolate wouldn’t go a miss either. Cut in half and sandwich together.
