🍪How to Make Chocolate Chip Scones

• Sift together the dry ingredients; flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. 

• Using a pastry blender, cut the cold butter into the flour. The mixture should look like coarse crumbs.

• In a small bowl, whisk together egg, heavy cream, and vanilla extract. 

• Add liquid ingredients and chocolate chips to dry ingredients and stir until moistened, and the mixture is well combined and holds together. 

• Chill for 15 minutes. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

• Press the dough onto a lightly floured surface into a circle about 8-10 inches round by 1 in thick. Cut with a pizza cutter or large knife into 8 triangles.

• Place the scones on a parchment-lined baking sheet, or ungreased baking sheet. Brush the top of the scones with 2 tbsp of heavy cream.

• Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until light brown. Let the scones cool before applying the glaze.

Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk sugar, vanilla, and milk until smooth.
