Snowy White Chocolate Scones Recipes

CRANBERRY AND WHITE CHOCOLATE SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a bowl by hand or using an electric mixer, blend together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and butter.
• Add the half and half, beaten egg, cranberries (I like the dried ones), and the white chocolate chips, and stir until the dough holds together.
• Turn out onto a lightly floured board and knead for 2 minutes.
• Form into a 1/2-inch thick round, then cut the round into 8 wedges (you can also make two smaller rounds of smaller wedges, if you like).
• Spray a baking sheet with vegetable oil, then transfer the wedges to the sheet.
• Bake the scones at 400 degrees F for 14 minutes or until golden brown.

HERSHEY'S® WHITE CHOCOLATE CINNAMON SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a cookie sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
• Sift 2 cups flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt into a large bowl. Stir in lemon peel. Cut butter in with a pastry blender or fork until the mixture is resembles cornmeal. Mix in 1/2 cup HERSHEY'S Cinnamon Chips.
• In a small bowl, whisk together sour cream, egg yolk, and vanilla. Stir in 1/2 cup melted HERSHEY'S HUGS . Mix into flour and butter mixture, and mix until dough comes together in moist clumps. Gather dough into ball.
• Press dough out on lightly floured surface to form a 8 inch round; cut into 6 wedges. Transfer wedges to prepared baking sheet, spacing 1 inch apart. Brush tops lightly with cream.
• Bake until scones are crusty on top, and a tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 15 to 20 minutes. Cool slightly. Drizzle the scones alternately with 1/4 cup melted HERSHEY'S HUGS and 1/4 melted HERSHEY'S Cinnamon Chips.

WHITE-CHOCOLATE-CHIP SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°.
• Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and lemon zest, whisking well.
• Using a pastry blender, cut butter into flour mixture until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add white chocolate morsels, stirring to combine. Set aside.
• In a liquid-measuring cup, combine cream (reserving 1 tablespoon for brushing) and vanilla extract. Add to flour mixture, stirring to combine. (If dough seems dry, add more cream, 1 tablespoon at a time, until dough is uniformly moist.) Working gently, bring mixture together with hands until a dough forms.
• Turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead lightly 4 to 5 times. Using a rolling pin, roll dough to a ½-inch thickness. Using a 2-inch round scalloped-edge cutter, cut rounds from dough. Place scones 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheet. Brush tops of scones with reserved 1 tablespoon cream.
• Bake until edges are golden brown and a wooden pick inserted in the centers comes out clean, approximately 17 minutes.
• Serve warm.

Steps:

• Lightly grease a baking pan and preheat oven to 400°.
