Cranberry Orange Scones

FOR THE SCONES:
In a bowl combine flour, 7 teaspoons sugar, orange peel, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Cut in butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a small bowl, combine cranberries, orange juice, half and half, and egg. Add to flour mixture and stir until a soft dough forms. On a floured surface, gently knead 6-8 times. Pat dough into a 10-12 inch circle. Use a round (or shamrock shaped) cookie cutter to cut and place on an ungreased baking sheet. Brush with milk and sprinkle with sugar. Bake at 400 degrees F for 12-15 minutes or until lightly browned.

FOR THE GLAZE:
Combine Confectioner's sugar and orange juice. Drizzle over scones.

FOR THE ORANGE BUTTER:
Combine butter and marmalade. Serve with warm scones.
