Ingredients

  • 2-1/4 cups Flour
  • 1/2 cups Sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
  • 1/2 teaspoons Salt
  • 1/2 cups Cold Unsalted Butter, Cut Into Cubes
  • 1 whole Large Egg
  • 2 Tablespoons Sour Cream
  • 1/4 cups Heavy Cream
  • 4 slices Bacon, Cooked And Crumbled
  • 2 teaspoons Chopped Fresh Chives

Method

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with silpats or parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a large bowl combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles small peas.
  • Add egg, sour cream, and heavy cream and blend just until combined. Be careful not to over mix the dough or you'll end up with tough scones.
  • Gently fold in the cooked crumbled bacon and the chopped chives.
  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and form into a 12" x 6" rectangle about 3/4" thick. Cut into quarters the short way, and thirds the long way to create 12 squares that are 3" x 2." Cut each square into two triangles. Place on prepared sheets.
  • Bake 12-15 minutes until edges are set. The tops should look dry, but not golden brown.
