Рецепт Strawberry & Chocolate Chip Scones
by Shannon Millisor

Strawberry

season is just starting and so there are a lot of recipes popping up that use

fresh strawberries. Most of these recipes are perfect for bringing out the

sweet and juicy flavors in the berries. Also, in a lot of places u-pick farms

are starting to open so you can get the freshest berries. In the summer I love

visiting farmers markets to see all of the fresh produce and crafts

available.

Where we used

to live there were two year-round farmers markets and it was so much fun to go

visit and see what we could find. One of them was outdoors and one of them was

part indoors and part under shelters which was as good as inside most of the

time. Where we live now I only know of one farmers market but it's not year

round I don't think. I'm sure there are more, I will just have to look

around.

These scones

are a little more like a dense cake then a traditional scone, but I wasn't sure

what to call them and scones seemed to fit the best. I added regular chocolate

chips and they complemented the strawberries really well. You could also use

mini chocolate chips or even white chocolate chips. Using sanding sugar on the

top would be a nice addition too, I'm all out for now or I would have. I love

the sparkle of the sugar on the top. You just can't get the same look with

regular granulated sugar.

This recipe is

written to serve four but you could easily cut them into six or eight. It makes

about an 8-9" circle. I had intentions of serving these with butter but I

ate them warm with nothing added to them and they were delicious.

Strawberry & Chocolate Chip Scones

Makes 4

Ingredients:

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 375F. Line a cookie sheet

with nonstick foil, a Silpat, or parchment paper, set aside.

2. In a medium bowl stir together the flour,

sugars, baking powder, and salt. Cut the butter into the flour mixture using a

pastry blender, two forks, or your fingers, until the mixture is the size of

small peas.

3. Stir in the egg and milk until blended, but

do not overmix. Stir in the strawberry pieces and chocolate chips until

combined.

4. Turn out the mixture onto the prepared cookie

sheet and form into a circle about 1/2” thick. Score the dough into four

pieces. Brush the dough with milk and sprinkle with sugar. Bake for 19-21

minutes or until golden brown. Cool on the pan several minutes, then remove to

a cooling rack or serve warm cut into four pieces.
