Buttermilk Cinnamon Chip Scones
3 cups all purpose flour
½ cup white sugar
5 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
¾ cup butter
1 cup cinnamon chips
1 egg, beaten
1 cup buttermilk
½ cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon milk
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter, leaving some visible pieces of butter. Add cinnamon chips to the flour mixture. In a small bowl combine the egg and buttermilk, and add to the flour mixture. Mix until just combined. Do not over mix. Pat out into a 10 inch circle on a floured cutting board. Cut into 8-12 wedges depending on the size of scone you want. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes. Combine powdered sugar with milk to make a glaze, and drizzle over the scones.
Beware: I did the math. If you cut them into eighths, they are about 500 calories each!!! Did I ruin it for you? They're worth it, if that helps.
