In small bowl, mix 1/2 cup whipping cream and the egg until blended. Stir into crumb mixture until dough forms.
• On lightly floured surface, gently knead dough 3 or 4 times. Pat or roll dough to 3/4-inch thickness. Cut with floured 2-inch round cutter. Onto ungreased cookie sheet, place rounds 1 inch apart. Brush dough with 1 tablespoon whipping cream; sprinkle with coarse sugar.

CRAISIN CRANBERRY WHITE CHOCOLATE SCONES

Steps:

• 1) Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• 2) In a medium bowl, mix flour, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Grate butter into flour mixture on the large holes of a box grater; use your fingers to work in butter (mixture should resemble coarse meal), then stir in craisins and white chocolate chips.
• 3) In a small bowl, whisk sour cream and egg until smooth.
• 4) Using a fork, stir sour cream mixture into flour mixture until large dough clumps form. Use your hands to press the dough against the bowl into a ball. (The dough will be sticky in places, and there may not seem to be enough liquid at first, but as you press, the dough will come together.).
• 5) Place on a lightly floured surface and pat into a 7- to 8-inch circle about 3/4-inch thick. Sprinkle with remaining 1 teaspoons of sugar. Use a sharp knife to cut into 8 triangles; place on a cookie sheet (preferably lined with parchment paper), about 1 inch apart. Bake until golden, about 15 to 17 minutes.

CRANBERRY WHITE CHOCOLATE SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees In a large bowl, stir in flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut the butter in 1/2 inch cubes and distribute them over the flour mixture. With a pastry blender or two knives scissor fashion, (I just use regular scissors or a fork and it works fine), cut the butter until it resembles coarse crumbs. In a small bowl, stir together the cream, egg, and vanilla. Add the cream mixture to the flour mixture and knead until combined. Knead in the white chocolate, walnuts, and cranberries. With lightly floured hands, pat the dough out into a 9-inch diameter circle. There are a couple of options for the next step... A. if you want small scones (which is the ONLY way I make them), you can use a small biscuit cutter or a 1/8 measuring cup or...B. you can cut the 9-inch diameter circle into 8 wedges for larger scones. I prefer the small ones... Small scones-bake about 11 min, let cool on wire rack Large scones-bake about 15-18 min, let cool on wire rack Frosting: In the top of a double boiler over hot, not simmering water, melt the chocolate and butter, stirring constantly. Stir in cream cheese until combined. Add brandy and vanilla and stir until smooth. (Keep stirring, I promise it will come together) Remove from heat and cool slightly. Stir in the sour cream. Scrape mixture into a bowl and cover and refrigerate until slightly firm. Let stand at room temp. for 10 min or more to soften and serve.
