Cinnamon Chip Scones

Ingredients

Prep time: 30 minutes

Cooking time: 18 minutes

Yield: 8 scones

• 2c all purpose flour

• 1/3c granulated sugar

• 1 tbs baking powder

• 1/4 tsp salt

• 6 tbs butter (cold and cubed)

• 3/4c heavy whipping cream

• 1 egg

• 1 tsp vanilla

• 2 tsp cinnamon

• 1c cinnamon chips

  Making the Scones

1. Pre-Heat oven to 400F

2. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon in a large mixing bowl

3. Add the cubed butter and combine with a pastry cutter until you have small pebbles

4. In a separate bowl whisk together the heavy whipping cream, egg, and vanilla

5. Add to the flour mixture, add in your cinnamon chips and stir to combine

6. Dump the dough onto the counter top and work to form a ball. The dough will all stick together, but should still be relatively dry and not stick to your fingers at all. If it is too dry and does not hold, you can add some additional heavy whipping cream, 1 tbs at a time.

7. Roll into a ball and then flatten to a circle, 7-8 inches in diameter.

8. Cut into 8 pieces

9. Place on a baking tray and freeze the dough for 15 mins

10. Bake for 18 minutes and set on a rack to cool.

Notes

1. You can add any type of mix-in you want - other types of chips, blueberries, raspberries, etc. Just add 1c of whatever you like, and do not add cinnamon.

2. If you want to have a lemon or orange flavor add 1 tbs of zest

3. When baking you can put all 8 on a standard sized cookie sheet - they do not spread much during baking
