Ingredients
2.75 c all-purpose flour2 T sugar4 t baking powder0.25 t salt10 T unsalted, melted butter (one stick plus 2 T)2 c shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided10-ounce package deli ham, chopped0.25 c chopped fresh chives1 c light cream0.25 c light sour cream
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowel, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Drizzle in melted butter, then stir well. Stir in 1.5 cups of cheddar, ham and chives.
In a small bowl, whisk together cream and sour cream, then add to dough and stir just until everything is moistened and the dough sticks together.
Turn dough out onto lightly floured surface.
Using your hands, form dough into a roud 1 inch thick and cut into desired size scones. I wrote the nutritional information of this recipe for 21 scones. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and either freeze until ready to bake or bake right away at 375 for 20-25 minutes. When freezing, freeze initially on a parchment-lined sheet and then, when frozen, transfer to a ziplock back for longer storage in the freezer. Either way...frozen or freshly made, you'll want to top the scones with the remaining 0.5 c shredded cheese before baking. Bake until golden and slightly firm. Cool slightly on the pan. Serve warm or at room temperature.
