white chocolate scones


When life gets crazy, it's great to have quick and easy recipes on hand.  This one fits the bill, and I love it because it's such a treat.  Scones are so special and delicious.  They made a delicious breakfast on Saturday morning and a wonderful treat during my tea breaks!  I hope you enjoy them as much as I do - they are delicious!

White Chocolate Scones
  • 1/2 cup sugar, divided
  • 1 1/4 cups flour
  • 1 1/4 t. baking powder
  • 1/4 t. baking soda
  • 6 T. chilled butter, sliced
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk, divided

Combine 1/3 cup sugar, flour, baking powder, and baking soda in a mixing bowl; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.  Fold in white chocolate chips; stir in 7 tablespoons buttermilk until just moistened.  Knead dough 6 to 8 times.  Pat into an 8-inch circle onto an ungreased baking sheet; cut into 8 wedges.  Or, pat dough into a greased scone pan.  Brush tops with remaining buttermilk and sprinkle with remaining sugar.  Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes or until golden.  Serves 8.
