Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cup (325g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp (7g) kosher salt or 1/2 tsp table salt
  • 1 Tbsp (12g) baking powder
  • 3/4 cup (177ml) 2% milk
  • 1 tsp (5ml) vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup (110g) salted butter cold & cut into cubes
  • 1 cup (190 g) white chocolate chips divided
  • 1/2 cup frozen raspberries

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F and move the rack to the middle of the oven.
  • Whisk the flour, sugar, spices, and baking powder in a large mixing bowl.  Then, add the cubed butter.
  • Cut the cold butter into the dry ingredients using a pastry blender or two knives until it resembles coarse crumbs.  The butter should be no larger than the size of a pea. 
  • Stir 1/2 cup of the white chocolate chips into the dry ingredients, then make a well in the center. Pour the milk and vanilla into the well. Mix the wet and dry ingredients, then fold in the frozen raspberries.
  • Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface, then form it into a ball and gently press it into a circle approximately 8 inches in diameter. Use a sharp knife to cut the scones into 8 wedges.
    It is normal for this part to be a bit messy as the berries soften and thaw; if the top feels too wet, add a sprinkle of flour.
  • Transfer scones to a parchment-lined baking sheet and then pop them in the oven for 20-22 minutes until golden brown.
    Using a pie lifter will make transferring them easier, as the bottoms may be a bit wet from the berries.
  • Transfer the scones to a cooling rack and let the scones cool for about 10 minutes.
  • Heat the remaining 1/2 cup white chocolate in the microwave until melted and smooth.
    Set the microwave to half power and heat the chocolate for 15-second intervals, stirring between intervals until you have a smooth consistency. If needed, you can add 1 tsp of vegetable shortening or solid coconut oil, which will help smoothen the chocolate.
  • Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cooled scones, then serve as desired. The chocolate drizzle will solidify as it cools.
