Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups fresh cranberries
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
- 3 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 12 Tbsp unsalted cold butter cut in pieces
- 1/2 cup possibly a little bit more cold buttermilk
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
glaze
- 1 1/2 cups confectioners sugar sifted
- Seeds of 1 vanilla bean or 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- milk half and half, or cream for thinning
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Pulse the cranberries and the brown sugar in a food processor to rough chop the berries. Remove to a bowl.
- Add the flour, baking powder, and salt to the processor and pulse to combine.
- Drop in the pieces of cold butter and pulse about 20-25 times until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Remove the mixture to a large mixing bowl and blend in the cranberries, chocolate, and buttermilk until the dough just comes together, it will be crumbly. If it is very dry, drizzle in a little more buttermilk.
- Turn the mixture onto a floured surface and bring together into a rectangular shape and cut into 9 rough squares. Put the scones in the freezer for 1/2 hour.
- Arrange the scones 2 inches apart on the lined baking sheet and bake for about 20 minutes, until just starting to turn golden. Don't over bake.
- Let cool before glazing with the vanilla bean glaze.
- To make the glaze, whisk together the sifted sugar, vanilla bean seeds, and enough milk, half and half , or cream to make a spoonable glaze..
