Cinnamon Chip Scones

I have a thing for the Cinnamon Chip Scones at Panera Bread, so the other day I was looking around for the recipe. Came across this recipe and gave it a try. Now I did add a teaspoon of cinnamon to the mix and to the cinnamon on the top of the scones. I really like cinnamon. Boy were they delicious, actually too good.

Now I realize some of you have enough snow already and this picture is just another cold snowy one but here in Oklahoma we are in a very serious drought and we will take any moisture we can get. We had rain then some sleet and then this morning we woke up to this. A couple of inches of snow.  
And a warm scones with a cup of hot coffee really hits the spot.

Cinnamon Chip Scones

(from Simple and Delicious magazine)
12 servings


3 1/4 cups flour
1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, divided
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon cinnamon (my add)
3/4 cup cold butter, cubed
1 cup buttermilk
1 package (10 ounces) cinnamon baking chips
2 tablespoons butter, melted

sugar and cinnamon mixture for top (mine again)

Combine flour, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in buttermilk just until moistened. Fold in chips. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 10-12 times or until dough is no longer sticky. 

Divide in half; gently pat or roll each portion into a 7 inch circle. Brush with butter and sprinkle with remaining sugar. Cut each circle into six wedges. Separate wedges and place on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 425° for 10-13 minutes or until lightly browned. Serve warm and enjoy!


I had been ask where did I find the cinnamon chips. I found them at the local store by me. They were with the chocolate chips. I had heard that Walmart sells them also. If you can not find them at your stores you can order them here at King Arthur Flour Co.

  4. Ditto-I've never heard of cinnamon chips, but my family would love this recipe! No snow in our part of Oklahoma. :( We seem to have a precipitation hole around us as most weather fronts miss us.

  6. I just made some cinnamon chip scones myself! They were so buttery, tender, soft, and delicate. Mmm. Literally the best thing that I’ve made. Definitely not the rock-hard, chewy, tough, dry, BLAND scones that I was used to. Bleh!

    I used a slightly different recipe than yours with less flour so it comes out super moist! Mmm.

  7. I should not be reading this when I'm hungry. LOL I have never heard of cinnamon chips. Apparently I'm not the only one. I have to go shopping - out of hairspray - so I'll see if I can find them. If so I'm making these this week.

  9. MMmmmm these scones look dreamy, I could do with one right now, and a cup of tea if you're offering! After such a hot summer today has been quite cold and I think your scones would go down a treat! Do you mind me asking what are cinnamon chips? I have never seen any in my country. Have a happy Easter Carolyn!

How to Make a Portable Design Wall

I had wanted to get a portable design wall to take to retreats but did not want to pay the price. Looked at various pins on pinterest and took ideas from more than one to come up with my verison. It worked out great and only cost a fraction of the price. The PVC pipes, joints and 2 yards of felt cost under $22.00 My design wall is 4' x 4' which stands approximately 5 1/5' tall. For this size need 2 - 10ft length of 3/4" PVC pipe for the frame and 4ft of 1" PVC pipe for the feet Cut the 3/4" PVC into 4 - 4' section                                                                                       2 - 1' section              Cut the 1"  PVC into 4 - 1' section          The joints you'll need will be 2 - 3/4" elbows 2 - 3/4" T's 2 - 3/4" to 1" T (this will be the base of the Feet) 4 - 1" elbow Also need pipe cutters (this cost me almost as much

Yarn Along 2/20/13 Spoon Pin Doily

It's snowing here and I know some of you are tired of snow but here we will take the moisture any way we can get it. Plus it just gives me a reason to stay in and work on some of my projects. In this picture I'm not sure if you can make it out but in the background there are some wild turkeys that hang around the house sometime, just  chilling This project I'm working on is Spool Pin Doilies.   I had never heard of them before until Bonnie Hunter had mentioned it on her blog . She a had a viewer send her one for her sewing machine along with a pattern. I did not like the pattern but loved the idea so I decided to make up my own version. I wanted a more simple, smaller and fuller doily. So I tried different thread sizes to get one that I like. (From left to right) I tried sock yarn, which I'll redo because I think I like that look. Heavy weight crochet thread, nope too big Bamboo yarn, I like it. Looks good on my Kenmore. Pearl cott

What's Up

Well that is a big question, what's up Seeing how I haven't posted since before the retreat I went to. So I will show what I did at the retreat and what I have been doing these past few days, which is this Log Cabin Christmas Tree  wall hanging I have the blocks completed and now it just a matter of getting them sewn together. I'll get to that tomorrow. While at the retreat I made this baby quilt top with the disappearing 4-patch block. I had a charm pack and used some "snow" fabric Kaufman snow is one of my favorite whites to use. It's white but not a stark, bright white, goes well with a majority of the fabric I've collected. I started late making my blocks for RCS14 First I wasn't sure what pattern I wanted to make and then with all that was going on the first part of the year, I didn't start until July. One quilt is using a quarter log cabin in solid colors. I made these at the retreat, have the other half t
