I love a good scone and I had this idea to try a white chocolate strawberry scone for a brunch I hosted for Carl’s mom and aunt. Wow! This scone did not disappoint. I couldn’t get over how D to the LISH these were. The tart strawberries with the white chocolate chips were pure heaven. These scones are so moist and are the perfect side to all the savory things you have on your brunch table. They are very easy to mix together and only take 20 minutes in the oven! Pop a bottle of bubbly and pour yourself a mimosa while you savor every bite of these beauties!
