Servings: 15 -18
Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup white sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- pinch of salt
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°
- In the bowl of a mixer add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Give the mixer a mix on low to combine.
- Then slowly pour the heavy cream and vanilla into the mixer as it’s mixing.
- Add the chocolate chips and mix until just combined, the mixture will look like large crumbs, but moist.
- It’ll stay together if pinched.
- Turn the mixture out onto wax paper and pat it into place, roll to desired thickness, and cut into triangles.
- Or scoop with a 3 tablespoon scoop and press the dough into the scoop to hold its shape, then drop onto parchment lined baking sheet.
- Brush the tops of each scone with a little heavy cream. It’ll help them get a little golden and a firm crust.
- Bake until a toothpick comes out clean and scones feel “light” when picked up versus “heavy and wet”. But don’t over bake.
- These baked for 15 minutes at 375°.
- Test the scones with a toothpick, add 1 minute at a time if needed. Larger or thicker scones may take a minute or two longer.
