Prep Time
Prep time: 10 minutes, Bake time: 15 minutes
Ingredients
  • 2 cups CF's Magic Baking Mix
  • 1/3 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/3 cup dried cranberries
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup sour cream
  • 1 tbsp milk

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 425°F and lightly grease a sheet pan.

  2. In medium bowl combine Magic Baking Mix, chocolate chips, cranberries and sugar.

  3. In small bowl whisk together egg and sour cream and then add to dry ingredients. Mix until well combined and a dough forms.

  4. Pat into an 8-inch circle. (Sprinkle with flour if sticky.) Brush dough with milk then sprinkle with sugar. Using a knife, cut the dough—but not all the way through—into eight wedges.

  5. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.
