Another from the Land O Lake site, this one I have tried before though. It is quite good though I changed it a little with the addition of the orange and vanilla extracts.
Ingredients:
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 1/2 teaspoons freshly grated orange rind
1/3 cup butter
1/2 cup mandarin orange segments, chopped
1/2 cup dried sweetened cranberries, chopped
1 cup sour cream
1 egg
1 teaspoon orange extract
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 tablespoons orange juice or 2 tablespoons mandarin orange liquid
1 tablespoon sugar
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 400°F; combine flour, 3 tablespoons sugar, baking powder and orange peel in large bowl.
2. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs; stir in Mandarin oranges and cranberries.
3. Combine sour cream, egg, extracts and orange juice in small bowl; beat with wire whisk until smooth; stir sour cream mixture into flour mixture until well mixed. (Mixture will be dry seeming.)
4. Spread into greased 9-inch round cake pan & sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar.
5. Bake for 28 to 32 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean and scone is lightly browned.
6. Cool 5 minutes; remove from pan then cut into wedges.
