the ice cream scoop on chocolate chip scones.

chocolate chip scones are basically chocolate chip cookies without eggs.  here's the recipe. 


ingredients.

1 1/2 cups plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
pinch of salt
1 cup chocolate chips (my favorite ingredient)
1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons butter, melted
additional sugar for sprinkling (optional)

directions:
preheat oven to 375. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.  Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl; stir to combine. Toss in the chocolate chips and stir to blend. Add the heavy cream to the flour mixture just until the dough forms.  Knead the dough very breifly with well floured hands to ensure even mixing.

Using a large spoon, drop rounds of dough onto cookie sheet.  Brush lightly with melted  butter.  Sprinkle with additional sugar if you are using it.  Bake 15 - 20 minutes.  Oh, and this is the most important direction of all.  ENJOY!
