In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Cut the butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture. Use your fingertips or a pastry cutter to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Gently fold in the butterscotch chips.

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it a few times to bring it together.

Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick circle and cut it into 8 wedges.
-
Place the scones onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
-
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown.

Allow the scones to cool on a wire rack before serving.
