Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
-
Cut the butter into small pieces and add it to the flour mixture. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
-
Stir in the dried cherries and chocolate chips.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and egg.
-
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
-
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it a few times to bring it together.
-
Roll the dough out to a 1-inch thickness and use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut out scones. Place the scones onto the prepared baking sheet.
-
Brush the tops of the scones with a little bit of heavy cream.
-
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown.
-
Remove from the oven and let the scones cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes before serving.
