    Title: Cranberry Orange Scones
    Categories: Scones
    Yield: 18 Mini scone

    1 sm Orange
    1 1/4 c All-purpose flour (plus
    -some for dusting)
    3/4 c Powdered sugar; divided
    2 ts Baking powder
    1/2 ts Salt
    1/3 c Dried cranberries
    1 c Heavy whipping cream
    1/2 ts Vanilla extract

    Tip: Make a double batch and after cutting the dough set most of them
    in a container with parchment paper between the layers of scones and
    freeze them. They can be baked straight out of the freezer for fresh
    scones with no preparation.

    Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Use a zester or small-holed cheese grater
    to zest the orange, then squeeze the juice into a small bowl. Set the
    zest and juice aside.

    In a large bowl, stir together the flour, 1/4 cup of the powdered
    sugar, baking powder, salt, and dried cranberries.

    Stir 1/2 ts of the orange zest and the vanilla extract into the heavy
    whipping cream. Pour the cream mixture into the bowl of dry
    ingredients and stir them together until a sticky ball of dough forms.

    Generously dust a clean work surface with flour, then scrape the
    dough out of the bowl onto the work surface. Divide the dough into
    three pieces and shape each piece into a disc, about 3" in diameter
    and about 1/2" thick. Cut each disc into six wedges.

    Place the cut scones onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
    Bake the scones for 15 minutes, or just until they begin to turn
    slightly golden brown on the edges. Allow the scones to cool
    completely after baking.

    While the scones are baking or cooling, stir together the remaining
    1/2 cup powdered sugar with 1 tb of the orange juice (or just enough
    to make a thick glaze) and another pinch of orange zest.

    When the scones are completely cool, drizzle the orange glaze over
    top and serve.
