A friend of mine served these at a playgroup coffee date several years ago. I finally got around to making them again today. They are so yummy!

Time 22m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/3 cup butter
1 3/4 cups flour
3 tablespoons sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg, beaten
6 tablespoons half-and-half (can use milk, but 1/2 and 1/2 is better)
1 teaspoon almond extract
white chocolate chips (as many as desired)
sliced almonds (optional)
1 egg white (just the whites)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut butter into flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt with a pastry blender until mixture resembles fine crumbs.
  • Stir in one egg, almond extract, and half and half. (Can add more half and half if the dough isn't coming away from the bowl.)
  • Add white chocolate chips and almonds. I find it easiest to mix the dough with my hands.
  • Take the dough in your hands and form 8 large balls. Set the balls on an ungreased cookie sheet. They don't have to be smooth -- the dough will be sticky to work with.
  • Brush scones with egg white.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Immediately remove from the cookie sheet and cool on a cooling rack.
