Chocolate Chip Scones

1 cup all-purpose flour
3 Tbsp sugar
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
Pinch salt
2 Tbsp cold butter
1 egg
3 Tbsp heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup miniature semi-sweet chocolate chips
1. In a bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
2. In a small bowl, mix egg and cream together. Stir into dry ingredients until just mixed. Fold in chocolate chips.
3. Turn onto a floured board and knead gently 6 - 8 times. Pat into a 6-inch circle and cut into 6 wedges. Separate the wedges and place an inch apart on an ungreased baking tray.
4. Bake at 350 degrees for 18 - 20 minutes. Remove from baking tray onto a cooling rack. Serve warm.
