Chocolate Chip Scones

Chocolate Chip Scones


1. Preheat oven to 400°F

2. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl.

3. Using a pastry blender, cut butter into flour mixture until it resembles pea-size pieces.

4. Gently stir sour cream and milk into flour mixture until blended, then fold in mini chips.

5. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Shape it into a 12" X 18" rectangle, patting with your hands to flatten it evenly. It should be approximately 3/4" thick.

6. Using a pizza cutter or knife, cut dough into 3 inch squares. Cut each square diagonally into triangles. (This is easiest to accomplish by making the cuts into the rectangle of dough, but leaving the pieces in place.) Sprinkle dough with sparkling sugar.

7. Separate dough, placing each triangle on parchment or silpat lined baking sheets, two inches apart.

8. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until lightly browned.
