       Yield: 8 Servings
  
       2 c  All-purpose flour
     1/3 c  Granulated sugar
       2 ts Baking powder
     1/2 ts Salt
     1/4 c  Unsalted butter, chilled
     1/2 c  Heavy (whipping) cream
       1 lg Egg
   1 1/2 ts Vanilla extract
       6 oz White chocolate, cut into
            -1/2 inch chunks
  
   Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl, stir together the flour,
   sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut the butter into 1/2 inch cubes and
   distribute them over the flour mixture. With a pastry blender or two knives
   used scissors fashion, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse
   crumbs. In a small bowl, stir together the cream, egg, and vanilla. Add the
   cream mixture to the flour mixture and knead until combined. Knead in the
   white chocolate.
   
   With lightly floured hands, pat the dough out on a floured work surface to
   a thickness of 5/8 inch. Cut circles in the dough with a biscuit cutter.
   Gather the scraps of dough together and repeat till all the dough is used.
   Bake scones on ungreased baking sheet for 15 to 20 minutes, or until
   lightly browned on top. Place baking sheet on wire rack for 5 minutes, then
   transfer scones to wire rack to cool. Serve warm or cool completely and
   store in an airtight container. Makes 8 or 9 scones.
