Time 40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 3/4 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup firm butter or margarine
1/3 cup finely chopped dried apricots
1/3 cup white vanilla baking chips
1 egg
About 1/3 cup half-and-half
1/3 cup white vanilla baking chips, melted

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400°F. Lightly grease cookie sheet with shortening or cooking spray. In large bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until mixture looks like fine crumbs.
  • Reserve 2 tablespoons apricots for topping. Stir remaining apricots and 1/3 cup vanilla baking chips into crumbly mixture. Stir in egg and just enough half-and-half so dough leaves side of bowl and forms a ball.
  • On lightly floured surface, knead dough lightly 10 times. Pat or roll into 8-inch round on cookie sheet. Cut into 8 wedges, but do not separate.
  • Bake 14 to 16 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet; carefully separate wedges.
  • Place melted baking chips in small resealable food-storage plastic bag; seal bag. Cut off small corner of bag; pipe small amount of melted chips over scones. Sprinkle with reserved 2 tablespoons apricots. Pipe remaining melted chips over scones. Serve warm or cool.

Tips:

  • Use cold butter: Cold butter creates flakier scones. Grate frozen butter for the best results.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the scones tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the scones rise and create a more even bake.
  • Bake the scones until they are golden brown: The scones are done baking when they are golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Enjoy the scones warm: Scones are best enjoyed warm. Serve them with butter, jam, or honey.

Conclusion:

Apricot and white chocolate scones are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can enjoy these delicious scones in no time.
