Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup cold unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup heavy cream
- 1 whole large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons coarse sugar for sprinkling
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold them together using a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overwork the dough.
Add the semisweet chocolate chips to the dough and mix until evenly distributed.
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and shape it into a circle about 1-inch thick.
Cut the circle into 8 equal wedges with a sharp knife or a bench scraper.
Arrange the scones on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each one.
Sprinkle the tops of the scones with coarse sugar for a sweet, crunchy finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until the scones are golden brown and firm to the touch.
Remove the scones from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy your perfectly baked chocolate chip scones.
