Preheat oven to 375 deg. 3. In a medium bowl, mix together all-purpose flour, wheat flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg. Using a patry blender cut butter into flour mixture until coarse crumbs form. 4. Mix together egg yolk and buttermilk. 5. Make a well in the center of flour mixture. Add egg mixture and cherries all at once to well, tossing with a fork until a soft dough forms. 6. On a floured surface, knead dough 10 times. Using a floured rolling pin, roll dough to a 1 in. thickness. Using a floured 3 in. heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut out scones. Gather trimmings, roll dough to a 1 in. thickness, and cut out more scones. 7. Place scones, 1 in. apart, on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake until golden, 18 to 20 min. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Dust with confectioners' sugar. NOTES : With a tempting blend of sweet and sour, these Valentine scones relect the true nature of romance. Make these scones in a variety of shapes. Serve with honey, sweet butter, or jam. Makes 8 scones. MC-RECIPE@MASTERCOOK.COM MASTERCOOK RECIPES LIST SERVER From the MasterCook recipe list.
