Chocolate Chip Scones!

This was my first time attempting to make scones and they came out pretty good! I still have to tweak a few things to perfect them.

What I used:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup light brown sugar
• 2 and 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 8 Tablespoons unsalted butter, frozen
• 1/2 cup heavy cream or buttermilk
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 1/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• coarse sugar for sprinkling on top before baking

1. Preheat oven to 400F degrees. Butter and flour the baking sheet.

2. Combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Add chunks of cold butter into the mixture and combine.

3. In a separate bowl, whisk the cream, egg, and vanilla together. Drizzle it over the flour mixture and then toss the mixture together with a rubber spatula until everything appears moistened. 

4. Slowly and gently fold in the mini chocolate chips. Try not to overwork the mixture! 

5. Press mixture into the pan and cut into triangles (or whatever shape you want?) Sprinkle sugar on top.

6. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until lightly golden and cooked through.
