Here's one of my favorites
Chocolate Chip-Walnut Scones
Ingredients:
2 cups all purpose flour
1/3 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 large egg
1 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup good semi sweet or milk chocolate chips
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (Optional)
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly grease a baking sheet.
In a large bowl stir together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Cut the butter into 1/2 inch cubes and distribute them evenly over the flour mixture.
With a pastry blender or two knives cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a small bowl stir together the buttermilk, egg and vanilla. Add the buttermilk mixture to the flour mixture and stir to combine.
Stir in the chocolate chips and hazelnuts. The dough will be sticky.
Using a large serving spoon, make 8-10 scones and place on the baking sheet
Bake for 15-17 minutes or until the top is lightly browned and a cake tester or toothpick inserted into the center of a scone comes out clean.
Remove the baking sheet to a wire rack and cool for 5 minutes. Using a spatula transfer the scones to the wire rack to cool.
Serve warm or cool completely and store in an airtight container.
Tips and tricks:
1. Use the whole 12 oz. bag of chocolate chips (I've been informed by my wife and daughter's you can never have enough chocolate chips).
2. Substitute the chocolate chips with white chocolate chips or butterscotch.
3. Substitute the chocolate chips with dried fruits.
4. The nuts are optional, either use none or a different type, toasted hazel nuts work well.
5. I like making them individually, but, you could make one big 9 inch circle and cut them into wedges. This is more traditional.
6. If you don't have buttermilk, I've used regular milk with good results
