- Bake in a 400 degree F oven for 20 to 25 minutes for the springform pan, 16 to 18 minutes for the baking sheet or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 20 minutes. Remove from the pan. Cut into wedges and serve while warm.
Notes
Serve with raspberry curd or lemon curd recipes.
dried cherries :s I am going to try this with cranberries and add white chocolate to it. I have a recipe for Cranberry Orange that I add dark chocolate to, but I can see this one with white. Going to check Costco first to see if they have dried cherries

Are you telling me you have a costo in Mexico or do you mean when you get back to the states or Canada?
I am so very pleased to say we do have a Costco here. It does not carry all the things I am used to having in Canada, but I am learning to adjust. It does however hold the same rules ... if you see it, buy it as it may not be there tomorrow.
We purchased a lot of our bedding from Costco. Well, the sheets and the fuzzy sex coverlets that we have at the end of the bed.
Today my PIC is out doing the shopping as I got to wait and home for guests who went out to see a nearby pyramid site, they were due back before 1 but as they were over an hour late she will be at Costco and I will be here. I love going to Costco.
No Costco here in GJ either, because Colorado doesn't allow "chain" liquor stores, it's a no can do...Costco won't move here with the restriction on liquor sales. Our Sam's only sells 3.2 products. You can't buy wine at the grocery store for crying out loud!

Really? We have 10 Costco warehouses on the eastern slope, plus there's one in Gypsum. Next closest to you is SLC.
But do they sell liquor, besides 3.2? If so, then I don't know what the hold up is!
There is not one Costco on the western slope... We're hoping that will change soon...I was told by a local liquor store owner, that the licensing issues were preventing them from opening here, they can open one here, they just can't sell liquor, so they don't. Even the local Sam's has had to contract out to have a Liquor store adjoined to their building, they weren't allowed to have liquor "in" their store, because of the no chain liquor clause. They still aren't open yet.

Perhaps that is why they are not here? I had no idea why not, but that makes sense, we have state run ABC stores for hard liquor sales.
No Costco here either, just Sam's Club and WalMart.

Okay I have to ask y'all, are you mispelling biscuit on purpose or is it a typo?
"I like them bisquits, uh hum"

Scones - don't over knead or they will become biscuits. The key to true scones -a very light touch.
