WHITE CHOCOLATE ALMOND SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut butter into flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt with a pastry blender until mixture resembles fine crumbs.
• Stir in one egg, almond extract, and half and half. (Can add more half and half if the dough isn't coming away from the bowl.)
• Add white chocolate chips and almonds. I find it easiest to mix the dough with my hands.
• Take the dough in your hands and form 8 large balls. Set the balls on an ungreased cookie sheet. They don't have to be smooth -- the dough will be sticky to work with.
• Brush scones with egg white.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
• Immediately remove from the cookie sheet and cool on a cooling rack.

CHOCOLATE CHERRY ALMOND SCONES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450°F. Line cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper.
• In large bowl, mix flour, 5 tablespoons sugar, the baking powder and salt. Cut in butter, using pastry blender or fork, until mixture looks like coarse meal. Stir in cherries and chocolate. In small bowl, beat egg, 1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons of the milk and the almond extract with whisk; add to flour mixture, stirring just until moistened. (Dough will be sticky.)
• On cookie sheet, pat dough with floured hands into 8-inch round. Cut round into 12 wedges, but do not separate. Brush dough with remaining 1 tablespoon milk; sprinkle with 1 teaspoon sugar and the almonds.
• Bake 15 minutes or until golden brown. Carefully separate wedges; serve warm.
