Butterscotch Drop Scones
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 tablespoon baking powder (heaping)
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup cold butter, cut into small pieces
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
- 1/2 cup cold whipping cream, unwhipped (may need a little more)
- 1 large egg
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a bowl sift flour, brown sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl.
- Add in very cold butter pieces and rub between fingers until coarse meal forms.
- In a small cup or bowl whisk together the cream and egg.
- Add to the butter/flour mixture with the baking chips and toss with a fork just until the dough comes together in moist clumps (add in more whipping cream if dough seems dry).
- Drop dough by 1/4 cupfuls onto a large lightly greased baking sheet, spacing apart.
- Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown.
- Best served warm.
