If you’ve lots of time, these luscious scones can be cut with gingerbread man cookie cutters; use dried cranberries or raisins for eyes if you like. They can also be cut with a small round cutter and served for tea; make sure there is lemon curd available as well as lightly sweetened whipped cream cheese and/or clotted cream.
