Cranberry/Blueberry/Orange/Lemon Scones to be exact!
These scones are literally so delicious that my mouth is watering as I type...

-Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and preheat oven to 400 degrees.
-In a medium bowl, mix: flour, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda & salt
-Grate butter into flour mixture on the large holes of a box grater (I had never done this before and it felt so cool!)
-Use your fingers to work in butter and then add blueberries, craisins, orange & lemon zest
-In a small bowl, whisk sour cream and egg until smooth.
-Using a fork, stir sour cream mixture into flour mixture until large dough clumps form. Use your hands to press the dough against the bowl into a ball. (The dough will be sticky in places, and there may not seem to be enough liquid at first, but as you press, the dough will come together.)
-Place on a lightly floured surface and pat into a 7- to 8-inch circle about 3/4-inch thick. Sprinkle with 1 tsp. of sugar.
-Use a sharp knife to cut into 8 triangles and place on a cookie greased cookie sheet
-Bake until golden, about 15 to 17 minutes.
Serve warm with butter.
