CHOCOLATE CHIP
SCONES
Grey Gables Bed 'N Breakfast Inn
Rugby, Tennessee
2 cups self-rising
flour
3 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup milk
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Preheat
oven to 425°. Grease a baking sheet. In a large bowl combine the
flour and sugar. Using a pastry blender cut in the shortening until
the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a small bowl combine the milk,
egg, and vanilla. Add to the crumb mixture along with the chocolate
chips, blending with a fork until the mixture clings together and forms
a soft dough.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 5
or 6 times. With a lightly floured rolling pin, roll the dough into
a 7-inch round. Cut it into 4 to 8 wedges. Place the scones 1 inch apart
on the prepared baking sheet. Pierce the tops with the tines of a fork.
Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve hot.
Note: If self-rising flour is unavailable substitute 2 cups flour, 2
teaspoons baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
Makes 4 to 8 scones.
