Glazed Eggnog Scones

2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ cup sugar
¾ teaspoon cinnamon
dash nutmeg
½ cup butter, cut into small chunks
¾ cup eggnog
¼ cup white chocolate chips

½ powdered sugar
2 teaspoons eggnog

Preheat oven to 375 F.

Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar and spices in a bowl.  Stir.  Using a pastry blender, cut butter into flour mixture until crumbly. Stir in eggnog until dough is moistened. Gently stir in white chocolate chips.

Divide dough in half.  On a lightly floured work surface, roll out each half to a circle about 1-inch thick.  Cut each circle into six wedges.  Lay a sheet of parchment paper onto baking sheet. Place wedges one inch apart onto parchment paper.  Bake 10-15 minutes or until golden brown. While scones are baking, prepare glaze.

Glaze:

Combine powdered sugar and eggnog. Adjust eggnog amount depending on desired consistency of glaze.

Cool baked scones slightly. Drizzle glaze over scones.

Makes 12 scones.
