Chocolate Peanut Butter Chip Scones


Ingredients
1 1/4 cup Flour
3 tablespoons Cocoa Powder
1/4 cup Sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1/4 cup Butter cold and cut into pieces
1 Egg
1/4 cup Milk
1/2 - 1 cup Peanut Butter Chips

Instructions
  1. Put the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder and salt in a food processor. Pulse to blend. Add the pieces of butter and pulse until the butter is mixed well into the flour.
  2. Add the egg and milk and mix just until blended. Add the chips and pulse again. Dump the mixture out onto a floured surface and form into a circle and press until dough is about 1 inch thick. Cut into 6 or 8 triangles.
  3. Transfer scones onto a prepared cookie sheet. Bake in a 400°F oven for 10-15 minutes, until done.
  4. Make a glaze of 1 cup powdered sugar, plus just enough milk to get a thin consistency, and drizzle over warm scones. Serve.
Notes: I didn't want to use a food processor so I mixed my dough by hand. These were tasty and not too sweet, but not nearly as good as the mixed berry scones I made earlier in the week. (These were a bit more dense and dry. Would be interesting to make that recipe with cocoa powder and chips mixed in.)
