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 ¼ cup all purpose flour
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup sugar
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ cup COLD butter grated
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 1 egg
- ¾ cup milk
- 1 Tbsp. fresh squeezed lemon juice
- ½ 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.

Sarah Churchman says
At what point do you put the butter in? I can't see it in the recipe
Brandy says
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!
Kristen A Reichert says
Hi! Salted or unsalted butter?
Brandy says
Hi Kristen! I generally use salted butter for all of my recipes. Happy baking!
Liz says
I was wondering how many cookies this will make? I want to make these for a family easter party.
Brandy says
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.
Tiffany says
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!
Brandy says
So glad you liked them! I never cared for scones until I started making them myself---they are so much better! 🙂
