Made With

As stated above, these scones are not only made with the usual scone recipe ingredients such as flour and oatmeal, they are also made with Greek-style raspberry yogurt, sweeten, flaked coconut, fresh raspberries, mini chocolate chips and chocolate covered Raspberry Cremes Candy A simple chocolate glaze tops these delicious scones. If you can’t find raspberry creme candies, substitute one fresh raspberry per scone.

Switch to White Chocolate

If you’d like to put a different spin on these already delicious scones, switch out the mini chocolate chips with white chocolate chips. Then top these scones with a simple white chocolate glaze. You can then leave out the chocolate covered raspberry cremes altogether. Chocolate covered raspberry cremes might not be available in all areas, so this option might be for you. Raspberry cremes are very similar to junior mints. Chocolate coating on the outside with a creamy middle. Junior mints are of course minty and the raspberry are raspberry flavored.
