Do you have to use cold butter in scones?
The best pastries come from cold or frozen butter. You can either cut it into tiny cubes and use a pastry cutter or grate frozen butter (my favorite method).
Can you substitute another berry for raspberries in this scones recipe?
Blueberry scones are one of my FAVORITES. They’d be delicious in this recipe as well as blackberries.

Servings: 8 scones
Calories: 350kcal
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cup all purpose flour
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 cup COLD butter grated
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 Tbsp. fresh squeezed lemon juice
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
- 2 Tbsp. butter melted
Instructions
- Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda in a large bowl.
- Mash butter with pastry cutter or fork into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Fold in raspberries.
- Beat egg, milk, and lemon juice with a fork in a small bowl. Stir into flour/raspberry mixture.
- Fold in white chocolate chips.
- Gently turn out dough on a generously floured surface and roll into a 12″ round disc with a rolling pin. You don’t need to knead or work the dough. The less you handle the dough, the better. It will be a sticky dough, just flour your hands and work your dough without handling too much.
- Cut with cookie cutter. Repeat with remaining dough scraps, working gently to press dough together before cutting again with cookie cutter.
- Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes on parchment lined baking sheet.Brush with melted butter.
Notes
TIP: The key to perfect scones is all in the butter. Grate your COLD butter with a cheese grater and add it to your flour mixture.

These were so delicious and easy to make. I served them at my tea with a raspberry cream.
That sounds amazing!
At what point do you put the butter in? I can’t see it in the recipe
Hi Sarah! I fixed the wording! It said, “Mash until it resembles coarse crumbs.” Should have said, “Mash butter into flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.” Sorry about that!
Hi! Salted or unsalted butter?
Hi Kristen! I generally use salted butter for all of my recipes. Happy baking!
I was wondering how many cookies this will make? I want to make these for a family easter party.
Hi! This makes about 6 heart shaped scones, depending on the size of your cookie cutter. If you slice your round scone dough into triangles using a pizza cutter instead you can make 8 of them. Hope that helps!
I love a good scone. The only place I’ve ever been able to find one that is good is a private gourmet bakery or Starbucks. This recipe is not good. It has no taste. I followed the recipe exactly and although the look just like the picture, they are tasteless. I won’t keep this recipe.
These scones were lovely straight out of the oven. Ever so slightly chewy & way better than your average scone. Thank you for the lovely recipe!
So glad you liked them! I never cared for scones until I started making them myself—they are so much better! 🙂
Yummy! Our 99 Cent Store has a great selection of fresh produce. I always pick up berries when they have it and this is a great way to make something delicious with them. Thanks for sharing on MM. Will be featuring your recipe this week.
Wonderful recipe for my loves. Grating the butter is a grand idea thanks for sharing that. Happy Valentine’s Day, Kippi #kippiathome

Yes! They warm up really well. Just a few seconds in the microwave.
Can I make the scones the night before?
Sadly I’m one of those that always who thinks scones must be so difficult to make. Something so delicious must take serious skill right? Your recipe looks so easy amd I love the fact that you added fresh raspberries. I’m going to have to try making these. Please wish me luck
Good luck! 🙂
Wow these look amazing!
Brandy, great idea for V-Day! I saved your recipe. I don’t know if I’ll get a chance to make it this time or not but I will try it in the future. Also, I am going to add a linkback to this in my post tomorrow for others seeking V-Day inspiration. Thanks for sharing. I’m visiting from Inspire Me Monday. 😉 Have a good week!

What a fun Valentine’s Day breakfast idea! Heart-shaped scones sound like a great way to start off the day! Plus, I love that you were able to pick up everything you needed at the 99. Thanks for sharing this fun recipe, Brandy! #client
My 99cent store had the 48oz containers of smart and final brand cottage cheese last summer! Generally when products are not 99 cents, they sign them as such – so I confirmed and they were 99 cents! I bought all 5! LOL I was a little cottage cheesed out after a while; but I couldn’t pass them up – they dates were still good for about 6 weeks and that size is usually about $5; and I got 5 for $5!! 🙂
That’s awesome! I love cottage cheese too!
