Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.33 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (cold and cubed)
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 1 unit Large egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup White chocolate chips
• 2 tablespoons Optional: Coarse sugar (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold them together with a spatula or wooden spoon until the dough just starts to come together. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the white chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently shape it into a disc about 1 inch thick and 8 inches in diameter.

Step 8

Using a sharp knife or bench scraper, cut the dough into 8 wedges (like a pizza).

Step 9

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

Step 10

If desired, brush the tops of the scones with a little heavy cream and sprinkle with coarse sugar for a golden, crispy topping.

Step 11

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the scones are lightly golden brown on the edges.

Step 12

Remove from the oven and allow the scones to cool for 5-10 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack.

Step 13

Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
