They look scrumptious! ^_^
I'm curious though, do you think it would be okay to use chocolate chips instead of raisins or dried cranberries? :)
over 6 years agoI would say go for it, why not. I think chocolate chips would be another excellent alternative. Happy Baking :)

I tried the recipe and I'm not sure what happened but the final biscuits ended up being dryer and flakier than I'd like. Would definitely add more milk next time! Otherwise, I loved the flavor, would totally recommend (just make the dough isn't too dry!)
