Chocolate Chip Scones

Ingredients

2 cups flour
2 t baking powder
1/4 t salt
3 T sugar
4 T cold, unsalted butter, cut into chunks
7 T half and half
1 large egg plus one large egg yolk
2 t vanilla
1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips

Set the oven for 375 bake and line a baking sheet with tin foil, sprayed with Pam.

In a food processor, mix flour, baking powder, salt and the sugar.

Place butter chunks on top and process.

In a small bowl whisk half and half, the egg, the egg yolk and vanilla and then pour into food processor while processing.  The dough will form into a large clump.  Take it out and put it on a cutting board with a bit of flour.  Put in the chocolate chips and knead.

Put chunks of dough onto the baking sheet (it should make about 6-8 scones).

Bake 30-35 minutes.

Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.
