Chocolate and Cherries a perfect match!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Once upon a time I wanted to open a tea room<\/a> but I gave up on that idea and realized I could still do the same types of foods that I loved to make for parties I catered. I love doing baby showers, and showers of all sorts because it gives me a chance to try new scone recipes and all sorts of finger sandwiches and little foods. Check out the Baby Button Cookies<\/a> I made for a shower a few weeks ago. They were delicious and oh, so cute.<\/p>\n

I love scones that are buttery, flaky and filled with either lemon curd or Devonshire cream. I usually make a mock Devonshire cream for parties and on occasion will buy the real thing from the grocery even though it is about $5-$6 a jar. I get very disappoint when I have a scone that is nothing more than a biscuit with a little sugar added in and not really a scone at all.<\/p>\n

My garden club is doing a tea for our May luncheon this year and I can’t wait to offer up some of my ideas for food. I have an idea of making a calla lily cookie and putting a sucker stick in it. Tint the dough pink and paint in a yellow center. I will probably have to practice a lot on these. I think these Chocolate Cherry Scones will be a hit if we decide to make them.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I had frozen these in advance. Just put on cookie sheet, turn oven on and when oven is preheated, pop these in to bake about 15-18 minutes.<\/p>\n
