    <directions>Preheat oven to 425.  Cover cherries with boiling water, plump for 5 minutes, drain & pat dry on paper towels.  Combine flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a bowl, mix well with a fork.  Add the dried cherries and lemon zest.  Stir in cream until dough starts to mass in the center of bowl.  Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface.  Knead lightly a few times.  Push cherries beneath the surface of the dough.  Place on an ungreased cookie sheet.  Pat into a 10" circle.  Brush with butter.  Cut into 12 wedges & bake for 12 minutes.</directions>
