Rasberry White Chocolate Scones

Whenever I make these, I think of my sister-in-law Sara as I got this recipe from her. Its a copycat recipe fro scones sod at a famous bread store that shall remain nameless. They are amazing. The first time I made them, they didnt turn out as well. Yesterday, when I made them again to take to the bishop for our meet-n-greet, they turned out amazing. They are good for breakfast, snack, dessert...I can pretty much eat them at any time of the day. Yummy!

3 sticks butter
2 c brown sugar
6 c flour
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
