Chocolate Chip Scones

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease two cookie sheets.

Mix together first five ingredients. Pour in cream and stir with a wooden spoon until the flour mixture is moistened.

Turn mixture out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently until a soft dough forms, about 2 minutes. Don’t overmix the dough.

Divide dough into three equal sized balls.

Flatten dough into a seven inch circle (use your hands to flatten the dough out) and cut each dough circle into eight triangles.

Place on cookie sheets about two inches apart. Brush tops with melted butter and sprinkle with sugar.

Bake for 15-20 minutes or until lightly browned on the bottom edges. Do not overbake or scones will be dry.

Serve warm.
