Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.3333 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 0.5 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 piece large egg
- 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup toffee bits
- 1 tablespoon heavy cream (for brushing)
- 1 tablespoon coarse sugar (for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the dry mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized bits of butter remaining.
In a small bowl, whisk together the heavy whipping cream, egg, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently with a wooden spoon or spatula until the dough just starts to come together. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the chocolate chips and toffee bits until evenly distributed.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently press it into a 1-inch-thick circle, about 8 inches in diameter.
Using a sharp knife or bench scraper, cut the circle into 8 equal wedges.
Transfer the scone wedges to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1-2 inches apart.
Brush the tops of the scones with the tablespoon of heavy cream and sprinkle with coarse sugar for a golden, crunchy finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 16-18 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let the scones cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your Chocolate Chip Toffee Scones with a cup of coffee or tea!
