More quarantine baking, this time scones! And we’re going to have a scone off. Up first, these babies which were really easy and quick to make and tasted great! There will be a couple more scone recipes to try and then we will declare a winner. It’s the little things in a pandemic people.
scones
2 cups flour
1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
1 1/4 cups heavy whipping cream
toppings
2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
sugar crystals, I used these here
1 Preheat oven to 425.
2 Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and chocolate chips together.
3 Add cream to mixture and stir until moist. Knead dough in bowl 5 – 10 times to clean up the sides and bring the dough together.
4 Transfer dough to lightly floured surface and pat out to an 8″ circle about 3/4″ tall. Cut dough into 6 – 8 pieces like a pizza and transfer to baking sheet.
5 Brush tops with cream and sprinkle with sugar crystals.
6 Bake 12 – 15 minutes.
