Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Scones





















Scone recipe:

2 c. all-purpose flour
1/3 c. packed brown sugar
2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 c. cold butter, cut into 1 Tbs. size pieces
3/4 c. semi sweet chocolate chips
1/2 c. buttermilk
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 tsp. vanilla
1 Tbs. milk

For the glaze:

3/4 c. powdered sugar
2 Tbs. milk
2 Tbs. creamy peanut butter
1/2 tsp. vanilla

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silpat.

In a bowl, stir together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

With a pastry blender (or your fingers if you don't have one), cut in the butter until mixture resembles a course meal.

Stir in the chocolate chips.

Make a well in the center of the mixture and add buttermilk, egg, and vanilla.  Stir until just combined (you want the ingredients to be mostly wet, but they may not stick together in a ball, that's okay).

Transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface and form into a ball.  Pat into an 8" circle and cut into 8 wedges.

Place on prepared baking sheet.  Brush each wedge with milk.

Bake scones until golden brown, 12-15 minutes.


Prepare glaze:

Place peanut butter in a small microwave safe bowl.
Warm the peanut butter for 20 seconds.
Add the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla.
Stir to combine.
Add a tiny bit more milk if needed, it should be a pourable consistency.


When scones are done, remove from oven and cool on pan for 5 minutes.
Remove from pan to a wire rack.
Top with glaze.
