Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ⅓ cup cold butter
- 1 cup mini chocolate chips
- ¾ cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Glaze
- 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon heavy whipping cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F
- Combine dry ingredients in a bowl and using a pastry cutter, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in chocolate chips and set aside.
- In a separate bowl, combine heavy cream, eggs, & vanilla. Add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients and stir just until it holds together. (if it’s dry you can add a little bit of additional milk.)
- On a lightly floured surface, knead dough by folding and gently pressing dough for 10 to 12 strokes until nearly smooth. Pat or lightly roll dough into an 8-inch circle and cut into 8 wedges.
- Bake for 20-23 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove scones from baking sheet. Let slightly cool and top with glaze.
Glaze
- Stir together powdered sugar and heavy cream.
- Pour the glaze over each scone and smooth with a pastry brush, let glaze on scones set on a wire rack.
Notes
- The butter will perform better if it’s cut into very small cubes and blended into the flour mixture cold.
- Avoid overhandling the dough once it’s in the shaping step because the warmth of your hands will melt the butter and condense the dough. You want a light, airy scone that has plenty of air pockets.
- Freeze scones before baking if desired. Bake from frozen for 18-22 minutes.
