Blueberry Scones

This recipe is perfect for that Mother's Day brunch, or an Easter Breakfast... Or just another weekend breakfast!  Whatever the occasion we have you covered!  This is easy to make, and even easier to eat!  Isn't that the way everythign that isn't good for you is?  :)  I am working a good for you recipe of these though, but give me time!!!  I always have to make a unhealthy (not that it is unhealthy, just not weight conscience, or low in sugar) version for you first!

Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup butter, chilled
1 cup fresh blueberries
3/4 cup half-and-half cream
1 egg

Directions:

1.Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

2.Cut butter into mixture of flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add blueberries and toss to mix.
3.In separate bowl beat together cream and egg, and slowly pour into dry ingredients, stirring with rubber scraper until dough forms. Knead just until it comes together, 3 or 4 times. Don't overhandle.
4.Divide dough in half. On lightly floured board, shape each half into a 6-inch round. Cut into 6 wedges.
5.Bake on ungreased sheet about 20 minutes at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Serve warm!!
