Servings: persons

2 cups all purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
unsalted butter cup cold, cut into small pieces
1 large egg lightly beaten
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup whipping cream
1 large egg lightly beaten
1 tablespoon cream

1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and place rack in middle of oven. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
2
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Blend the butter pieces into the flour mixture until the texture is like coarse crumbs.
3
Whisk together the egg, cream and vanilla and add to the flour mixture. Mix just until the dough comes together, taking care to not over mix.
4
Transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead dough gently four or five times and then pat or roll the dough into a circle that is about 1 inch thick. With a 3 inch round cookie cutter, cut out rounds and place the scones on the baking sheet.
5
In a small bowl, lightly beat one egg and 1 tablespoon of cream, then brush the tops of the scones with the egg wash.
6
Bake for about 15 - 20 minutes or until nicely browned and a toothpick inserted in the center of a scone comes out clean. Transfer to a wire rack.
