Cheater Scones- Bisquick Hack

You know what a "hack" is, right?
Urban dictionary says-
"To jury-rig or improvise something inelegant but effective, usually as a temporary solution to a problem".  

I wanted to make something for a meeting at work, but was short on time, and inclination to hit the store. Mainly because that stuff never tastes that good, costs a lot and looks cheesy to bring it in in a plastic box.  Baking scones at home shows you care...

This worked perfectly and only took about 20 minutes.  
I threw the finished scones in a basket, with some jam and I was out the door by 6am.  How happy are your co-workers when you arrive with warm scones??? Oh, pretty happy! 

So, I busted out the bisquick and did some quick thinking, what would improve this stuff?
Actually quite a bit of stuff would make awesome, quick scones.  My idea includes dried cherries and sliced almonds, but use your creativity here.... chocolate, raisins, toffee bits would all be great too.

  Makes 16 scones
Ingredients

4 1/2 cups Bisquick Mix
1 cup milk
1/3 cup butter, melted , plus another 1Tbsp for brushing on top
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup dried cherries, or raisins, or currants
1/2 cup sliced almonds
1-2 Tbsp Turbino Sugar, also know as "raw sugar"

Preheat oven to 450 degrees

Mix the bisquick, milk, buter, sugar, cherries and almonds together.  Turn out the mixture on a floured board and knead about 15 times.  Kneading is nothing more than turning and folding the dough over and over, which creating layers in the end product.

Pat into 2 circles, about 8-9 inches in diameter and about 3/4- 1" high.  Brush with some more melted butter, sprinkle with coarse sugar and cut into wedges.  Position on baking sheets and bake 8-10 minutes until the tops are browned and the scones have risen.
