Chocolate Chip and Cranberry Scones
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
-
Cut the cold butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, heavy cream, and vanilla extract.
-
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
-
Fold in the chocolate chips and dried cranberries.
-
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times to bring it together. Pat the dough into a circle about 1 inch thick.
-
Cut the dough into 8 wedges and transfer them to the prepared baking sheet.
-
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown.
-
Remove from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes before serving.
