Strawberry Vanilla Scones With Chantilly Cream - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups self-raising flour
3/4 cup strawberries, chopped
1 tbsp sugar
1/2 cup cream
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
None None For The Chantilly Cream
1 1/4 cup heavy cream
2 tsp powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400\u00b0F. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Sift flour into a large bowl. Stir in strawberries and sugar.
Make a well in the center of the mixture and add combined cream, milk and vanilla. Using a blunt knife, mix quickly to a soft, sticky dough. Do not over-mix.
Turn on to a lightly floured surface. Knead lightly. Press or roll out to form a round about 1 inch thick. Using a 2 inch pastry cutter, cut scones from dough. Gently press remaining dough together and repeat.
Place scones close together on the prepared tray. Bake for 12-15 mins until scones are golden and sound hollow when tapped. Cover with a clean tea towel and cool on tray for 10 mins.
For the chantilly cream, beat the cream in a bowl, using an electric mixer, until it begins to thicken. Add powdered sugar and vanilla. Beat until soft peaks form. Cover and chill. Serve with scones.
