FOR THE SCONES:
1/2 cups Roughly Chopped Dried Cherries
1/4 cups Chopped Shelled Pistachios
2-1/8 cups All-purpose Flour, Divided (plus More For Dusting)
2 whole Eggs, Lightly Beaten
1/2 cups Whole Milk
1/8 cups Sugar
1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
1-1/2 stick (3/4 Cup) Unsalted Butter, Cubed And Chilled
1/2 cups (heaping) Dark Chocolate Chips
FOR THE EGG WASH:
1 whole Egg
2 Tablespoons Whole Milk
FOR THE GLAZE:
1/4 cups Powdered Sugar
2 Tablespoons Whole Milk
1 dash Real Vanilla Extract

1
Preheat your oven to 400 F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
Combine the chopped cherries and pistachios in a small bowl and toss with an eighth cup of all purpose flour and set aside.
3
Combine the two eggs and the 1/2 cup of milk in a small bowl, set aside.
4
In a large bowl combine the remaining two cups of flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Drop in the cold butter and using a pastry cutter, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse, wet sand.
5
Add the egg/milk mixture into the flour mixture and stir just until combined. Fold in the nuts, cherries and dark chocolate chips.
6
Flour a clean surface and rolling pin. Drop the dough down on to the floured surface and knead into a ball. Use your rolling pin and roll the dough out to a half-inch thick. Use a 3-inch round cutter and cut as many circles of dough you can. Use the scraps to make more scones.
7
In a small bowl whisk together one whole egg and two tablespoons whole milk to make the egg wash.
8
Brush with the egg wash and bake for 15-18 minutes or until the tops are golden, rotate the pan halfway through baking. Remove the scones immediately to a wire rack and let cool.
9
Combine the glaze ingredients in a small bowl and when the scones have cooled, dunk the tops into the glaze.

Enjoy!
