    Chocolate-Stuffed Peanut Butter Scones


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    2 c Flour
    1/2 c Light Brown Sugar
    2 1/2 ts Baking powder
    1/4 ts Salt
    1/4 c Sweet Butter chilled
    3/4 c Peanut butter, creamy
    1/4 c Milk
    2 Egg
    2 ts Vanilla extract
    1/2 c Peanuts, unsalted chopped
    1 1/2 oz bittersweet chocolate broken

    Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. In a large bowl, stir together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut the butter into 1/2-inch cubes and distribute them over the flour mixture. With a pastry blender or two knives used scissors fashion, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a small bowl, stir together the peanut butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla. Add the peanut butter mixture to the flour mixture and knead until combined. Knead in the peanuts. Pat the dough out into a 1/2-inch thickness on a cutting board. Using a floured 2-1/2-inch to 3-inch diameter crinkled round biscuit cutter, cut out rounds from the dough. Gather the scraps together and repeat until all the dough is used and there are 16 rounds. Place 8 of the rounds on an ungreased baking sheet. Top each round with a piece of the chocolate and one of the remaining circles of dough. Press the edges gently to seal. Bake for 17 to 19 minutes, or until lightly browned. Remove the baking sheet to a wire rack and cool for 5 minutes. Using a spatula, transfer the scones to the wire rack to cool. Serve warm or cool completely and store in an airtight container.
