Time 35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups all-purpose flour
⅓ cup packed brown sugar
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled
½ cup buttermilk
1 egg
1 ½ teaspoons almond extract
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
½ cup chopped hazelnuts

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C). Lightly butter a 9 inch diameter circle in the center of a baking sheet.
  • In a large bowl, stir together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Cut the butter into 1/2 inch cubes, and distribute evenly over flour mixture. With a pastry blender or two knives, cut butter into the flour mixture. Stir together buttermilk, egg, and extract; add to the flour mixture, and stir to combine. Stir in the chocolate chips and hazelnuts. The dough will be sticky.
  • Spread the dough into an 8 inch diameter circle on the baking sheet. Cut with a serrated knife into 8 wedges.
  • Bake for 17 to 19 minutes, or until the top in lightly browned. Cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes. Transfer scones to the wire rack to cool, and cut into wedges. Serve warm, or cool completely and store in airtight container.

These scones were a bit too dense for my taste. I think I would add a little more baking powder next time.

These scones were a little too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

These scones were a bit dry for my taste. I think I would add a little more milk next time.

These scones were so easy to make. I didn't have any hazelnuts, so I used walnuts instead. They turned out great!
