Chocolate Chip Scones

1 c. all-purpose flour

3 T. sugar

1 ½ t. baking powder

dash salt

2 T. cold butter

1 egg

3 T. heavy whipping cream

½ c. miniature semisweet chocolate chips

 

Directions:

In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.  Cut in butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.  In a small bowl, combine egg and cream; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.  Fold in chocolate chips.  Turn onto a floured surface; knead gently 6-8 times.  Pat into a 6-inch circle.  Cut dough into six wedges.  Separate wedges and place one inch apart on an ungreased baking sheet.  Bake at 350 degrees for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown.  Remove from pan to a wire rack.  Serve warm.
