White Chocolate Raspberry Scones
March 8, 2022
This delicious combination of tart raspberries and sweet white chocolate will satisfy your cravings. They can be savored as a sweet treat for dessert, and remain flavorful when warmed up for breakfast!
Ingredients:
2 ½ cups all purpose flour
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
8 tbsp unsalted butter (cold, cut into ½ cubes)
1 egg
1 cup heavy cream
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ cup white chocolate chips
½ cup fresh raspberries
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F.
- Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl and mix.
- Cut in butter using a pastry blender or fork until it becomes coarse and crumbly.
- In a small bowl, whisk together egg, vanilla extract, and ½ cup of heavy cream.
- Mix egg mixture into flour, adding extra heavy cream as needed to get the dough to just stick together.
- Add white chocolate chips and raspberries and combine. I find it easiest to use my hands. The raspberries will break apart—that’s okay!
- Shape the dough into two round circles, about ½ to ¾ inch high. Cut into 6 triangles.
- Place on a non-stick baking sheet, or one lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes until lightly browned on top.
- For presentation, drizzle melted white chocolate onto the cool scones!
