Cooking tips:1. If you have a food processor at home, you can also freeze the butter. Put the flour in the food processor and break it together. 2. The flour needs to be evenly wrapped with butter. After baking, the water evaporates and leaves holes. With the effect of baking powder, the scones will be soft. 3. The dough should not be kneaded more, otherwise it will not be so crisp if it has tendons. 4. Dried cranberries can be put more. Scones are a little dry. Cranberries become fragrant and soft after baking. They just neutralize the taste. 5. Eat while it's hot. If it's cold, bake the scones back a little. It's similar to the taste just out of the oven. 6. The sugar is very small. It is not recommended to reduce sugar unless you especially like light food. There are skills in making delicious dishes.
