Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• 0.67 cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup dark chocolate chunks or chips
• 1 cup fresh raspberries
• 1 egg (for egg wash, optional)
• 2 tablespoons coarse sugar (for topping, optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Add the cold, cubed butter to the bowl. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and vanilla extract.

Step 5

Gradually pour the cream mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring with a fork until the dough starts to come together. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Gently fold in the chocolate chunks and fresh raspberries, being careful not to crush the raspberries.

Step 7

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently shape it into a round disk about 1 inch thick.

Step 8

Use a sharp knife or bench scraper to cut the disk into 8 equal wedges.

Step 9

Transfer the wedges to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 10

If desired, whisk the egg to make an egg wash and brush it lightly over the top of each scone. Sprinkle with coarse sugar for added sweetness and crunch.

Step 11

Bake in the preheated oven for 16-18 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown and cooked through.

Step 12

Allow the scones to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 13

Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
