    Notes

    Here are a few tips and tweaks to keep in mind:
    Use fresh strawberries for the best flavor.
    Don’t overmix the dough, or the scones might turn out tough.
    Cool scones on a rack before serving to keep them crispy.
    Add spooky decorations like colored icing or creepy sprinkles for extra fun.πŸ•ΈοΈ
