Cranberry And Orange Scones - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 1/2 cups self-rising flour
    2 tbsp cold butter, chopped
    1/3 cup dried cranberries
    2 tbsp sugar
    1/3 cup sour cream
    1/3 cup milk
    1/3 up orange juice
    1 None orange, peel finely grated
    None None Whipped cream, to serve
Preparation
    Preheat the oven to 425\u00b0F. Lightly grease a baking sheet. Sift flour into a large bowl. Add butter and rub in lightly, using fingertips. Stir in cranberries and sugar.
    Whisk sour cream, milk, orange juice and peel in a small bowl. Reserve 1 tbsp. Pour the remaining into the flour mixture. Mix to form a soft dough. Do not over-mix.
    Turn onto a lightly floured surface. Knead lightly. Roll to 3/4 inch thickness. Cut into rounds using a floured 3 inch round cookie cutter. Re-roll dough as needed. Place scones close together on prepared pan. Brush with reserved milk mixture.
    Bake for 12-15 mins, until scones sound hollow when tapped. Cool on a wire rack. Serve with whipped cream.
