Come up with one combination better than chocolate with peanut butter.  You can't.  Well, unless you hate chocolate or peanut butter for some reason.  So, when I found the recipe for chocolate peanut butter scones, I almost started crying.  They were gorgeous looking.  I had to make them.  And this morning was the perfect time to do it.  Here is the recipe:
Ingredients:
  • 2 cups of whole wheat flour
  • 1/4 cup of raw turbinado sugar
  • 2 teaspoons of baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon of salt
  • 3 tablespoons of cold butter cut into 6 pieces
  • 1/2 cup of cocoa nibs
  • 2/3 cup of milk
  • 3 tablespoons of egg whites
  • 1/2 cup of creamy peanut butter


Directions:
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees fahrenheit.  Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together.
  • Use electric mixer to stir butter in.
  • Pour the mixture into a large bowl and add chocolate chips.
  • Put milk, egg whites, and peanut butter into another bowl and use the electric mixer to combine.  Then, pour over the dry mixture and stir until just moistened.
  • Put mixture on parchment paper on the cookie sheet.
  • Knead into a disk, 8 inches in diameter, then cut into 8 wedges.  Place the wedges a couple inches apart on the cookie sheet.
  • Bake 15-18 minutes until golden brown and set.  Store in a closed container at room temperature.


These were super easy to make and the little kids love them!  Try them out!
