Introduction
These scones are always a hit. I sometimes make chocolate butter for them. Mix a bit of butter with chocolate syrup and blend well. This will satisfy the chocaholic in your family.
Ingredients

2 cups self_rising_flour
3 Tablespoons granulated_sugar
1 stick butter
1 teaspoon vanilla_extract
1 large egg
1/2 cup milk or half & half (or half of each)
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate_chips
1/4 cup walnuts or pecans (optional)


Topping:
1/3 cup butter
1 teaspoon sugar 

 

Directions
Step: 1Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Combine flour and sugar. Cut in butter with pastry blender until crumbs are formed. In separate bowl, combine egg, vanilla, and milk with a wire whisk. Add to dry ingredients along with chocolate chips and nuts. Mix gently with pastry blender until soft dough is formed.
Step: 2

Dust hands with flour and gently knead dough 5 or 6 times on lightly floured surface. Pat with floured hands or dust rolling pin with flour and roll dough into an 8-inch round. Using a serrated knife, cut dough into 8 wedges, wiping knife clean and dusting with flour between each cut if necessary. Place 1 inch apart on greased cookie sheet . Bake 12 to 18 minutes or until slightly browned.

Place topping ingredients into a small non-stick saucepan. Melt and stir until ingredients begin to boil. Spoon over each scone. Serve warm with jam, honey butter or your favorite spread.
