Cranberry Scones
I made a couple of adjustments to the recipe. I only used one-half cup of 1/2 and 1/2 which was plently of liquid. I did still need to add a bit more flour when I kneaded the dough. I dusted the top of the scones with bakers' sugar before baking. I brought them for a "food day" at work. They were very well received.

Best Cherry Pie
I used approximately 22 oz. of frozen unsweetened Door County cherries for this pie. I happened to have heavy cream so I used that to glaze the crust and then sprinkled it with sugar. I would recommend turning down the oven temperature to 350 after 10 minutes so that the crust does not get too brown. Its a great pie and we all enjoyed it!

Pumpkin Maple Pie Supreme
Its a good pie, but too sweet. I should have read more of the reviews and cut down on the brown sugar. I'm also not sure that using the maple syrup which is very expensive is really worth it. I eliminated the cloves and allspice since I don't like either one. The pie has a nice texture and flavor, but I don't consider it the ultimate pumpkin pie.
