["For the scones: Begin by adding together your dry ingredients; the sugar, flour, baking powder, and salt.", "Cut in the butter using a pastry cutter. If you don't have a pastry cutter, a fork or two knives also will work.", "Mix together the buttermilk, cherry juice, almond extract, cherries and chocolate chips.", "Combine cherry mixture with the flour until just mixed and form it into a ball of dough.", "If you use cherries in juice like I did, you may need a little extra flour. If this is the case, simply bring it out onto a floured surface and gently knead in any extra flour (about 1/4 cup) that's needed until you have a suitable dough.The less kneading the better.", "Place sections of dough into a scone pan or flatten out your ball to a 1"" thick circle and cut 8 slices like you would a pizza pie.", "If you're using a scone pan, place into the oven at 350F for 30 to 35 minutes. If you're baking straight from a baking sheet, your time may be a few minutes less.", "To make the glaze, heat up the cream until it just begins to steam.", "Remove from heat and add in the chocolate chips. Stir a few times until melted.", "Add in the almond extract and powdered sugar. Whisk until smooth.", "Serve over scones."]
