Ingredients

  • 1 tsp. Golden Monkey tea leaves
  • 1/2 c. boiling water
  • 3 tbsp. heavy cream (divided)
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten separately
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 3 1/2 c. baking mix
  • 1/2 c. sugar
  • 3/4 c. white baking chips
  • 3/4 c. chocolate chips

Directions

Brew tea in water and let steep 5 min. Strain. Set aside 1/4 c. tea and allow to cool.

Preheat oven to 350°F.

In a small bowl, combine 1/4 c. cooled tea, 2 tbsp. of the cream, 1 egg, and vanilla extract; set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, combine baking mix, sugar, white baking chips, 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" disk (approximately 1/2" thick). Cut into 12 wedges and place on ungreased cookie sheet. Set aside.

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

Bake for 18-20 min. or until golden brown.
