Directions: |
Directions:Heat oven to 425º. Stir together flour, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in large bowl. Cut butter into 1/2 inch slices; using fingers or pastry blender, mix butter into flour mixture until coarse crumbs form. Add buttermilk; stir with fork just until ingredients are moistened and soft dough forms. Add chips of your choice. Gather dough into a ball, pressing gently to hold together. Turn onto slightly floured work surface; knead briefly, 10-12 times. Cut dough in half. Roll or pat one piece of dough at a time into 7-inch circle, 1/2" thick. Brush one circle with 1 Tablespoon melted butter; sprinkle with raw sugar. Cut circle into 6 triangles ( I use a pizza cutter). Place triangles on ungreased cookie sheet. Repeat procedure with remaining circle of dough.
Bake 10-12 minutes until tops are golden. Remove to a wire rack. Serve warm. |

Notes: Yummy scones. I use any flavor of chips I have. Our daughters have added cut up dried apricots, craisins, or other dried fruits. I use regular sugar for the topping, since I'm not sure what raw sugar looks like.
