Chocolate chunk/chip scones. Okay, so I needed to separate all of these scone recipes...I have too many, but also there are never too many scones. The base for all of these is by far my favorite. I really have become a scone snob and I hope these live up to the hype for you too.

Favorite tool for making scones is a cheese grater for the butter, here is a good one with the large whole size for cutting up the butter as needed!

How to make Scones
- Preheat oven to 425° F, prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly flour one.
- In large bowl mix flour, baking powder, salt and sugar.

- Pour in the heavy cream and egg, mix with hands until a dough forms. Roll dough out on a floured surface and form a circle about 1" thick.
- Cut your dough into triangles as you would a pizza with a pizza cutter (or use cookie cutter to make shapes like hearts). Brush the scones with a little heavy cream. Sprinkle with a little salt and/or coarse sugar.
- Place scones on prepared sheet separated 1-2 inches. Bake for roughly 20 minutes or until slightly golden.
- Remove scones and let cool.
