Recipe
Combine first five ingredients. Cut in butter until crumbly. Combine
buttermilk, egg and espresso powder. Stir until powder dissolves. Add
buttermilk mixture, nuts and mini morsels to dry ingredients. Stir just
until moistened. Turn dough out on to a lightly floured surface. Knead
five or six times. Divide dough in half. Roll or pat each half in to a
six inch circle. Cut each circle in to eight wedges. Place wedges 1 inch
apart on lightly greased baking sheets. Brush with milk. Sprinkle with
the 1 tablespoon of sugar. Bake at 425 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes or
until lightly browned. Melt remaining mini morsels. Drizzle over scones.
