Ingredients

  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour

  • ¾ cup heavy cream
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon heavy cream

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F

  2. 2

    Combine dry ingredients in a bowl and using a pastry cutter, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in chocolate chips and set aside.

  3. 3

    In a separate bowl, combine heavy cream, eggs, & vanilla. Add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients and stir just until it holds together. (if it’s dry you can add a little bit of additional milk.)
