Can't get enough - scones!

I love scones. Whether we're talking fair scones, English scones, buttermilk scones, blueberry scones, or any other kind of scone you can imagine. These scones were more like cookies, and they were totally delish. These aren't exactly healthy (they do include heavy whipping cream!) but they're a fun, once-in-awhile treat.

Chocolate Chip Scones

Ingredients:
  • 3 1/4 cups flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon + 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3 Tablespoons cold butter, diced
  • 2 cups chocolate chips
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
Directions:

Preheat the oven to 375?F. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper or silicone liner.

Using a wooden spoon, stir together the flour, sugars, baking powder and salt in a large mixing bowl. Cut the butter into the flour mixture, using a pastry cutter or fork, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Stir in the chocolate chips. Add the whipping cream to the flour mixture and stir just until the ingredients are moistened. Do not over mix! Drop the dough by large tablespoons onto prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart. Bake for 20 minutes. Let cool on wire rack.
