20 minutes bake time
Serving Size: 12

Ingredients

1/4 cup brewed Golden monkey tea, double-stregth, cooled
3 tablespoons heavy cream (separated)
2 large eggs, lightly beaten separately
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 1/2 cups baking mix
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup white baking chips
3/4 cup chocolate chips

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a small bowl, combine tea (cooled), 2 tablespoons of the cream, 1 egg, and vanilla extract; set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, combine baking mix, sugar, white baking, and chocolate chips.
Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and work into a crumbly dough. On a lightly floured surface, form dough into a 9-inch disk (approximately 1/2-inch thick). Cut into 12 wedges and place on ungreased cookie sheet. Set aside.

In a small bowl, combine remaining 1 tablespoon cream and remaining beaten egg. Brush tops of scones with egg mixture and sprinkle with sanding sugar, if desired.

Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.
