CHERRY SCONES

1 package Chai Spice Scone Mix
4 tablespoons butter
2 large eggs
1 cup fresh and drained pitted cherries
1 to 3 tablespoons milk

Preheat oven to 350°. Cut 4 tablespoon butter into dry mix using pastry blender or criss-crossing 2 knives, until mixture looks like fine crumbs. Add 2 large eggs, slightly beaten. Stir in cherries. Add 1 tablespoon milk one tablespoon at a time (no more than 3 tablespoons total) to moisten mixture to a cookie-dough texture. Spoon dough in 2-inch mounds onto greased cookie sheet. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until bottoms of scones are lightly browned.

Approximately 8 round scones.
