Scones
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup white sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons cold butter
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 cup blueberries, fresh or frozen (or mini-chocolate chips)
egg mixture to brush on top
1 large egg
1 tablespoon heavy cream
Golden Butter Sauce
1/2 cup half-and-half
1/2 cup real butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1
Mix in large bowl the flour, sugar, salt & baking powder.
2
Cut in butter with pastry blender (or fork) until flour becomes crumbly.
3
Then add the beaten egg, cream and vanilla, combine just until mixed. (Gently use hands so you don't over-mix or the scones will be tough, not crumbly.).
4
Carefully fold in blueberries with hands (if using chocolate chips, you don't have to be as gentle.) Do not over-mix.
5
On a floured surface, knead by hand for a minute and then form a 6 inch circle.
6
Cut into 8 triangles with a pizza cutter. Put onto a large cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
7
Brush with the cream/egg mixture.
8
Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for about 15 minutes or until slightly golden brown. Remove to cooling racks.
9
To make butter mixture, combine all 4 ingredients in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring until butter melts.
10
Pierce the scone with your fork in a few places, and pour some butter sauce over scone.
11
Enjoy with a cup of coffee or tea!

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
