The ingredients for Strawberry, macadamia nut, and chocolate chip scones are:

2 C flour (I use half whole wheat)
1 T baking powder
1/2 t salt
2 T sugar
5 T unsalted butter, cold, cut into chunks
1 C heavy cream (or milk)
1 C strawberries (or blueberries, or peach slices, or other fruit)
1 oz macadamia nuts, chopped
2 T chocolate chips, chopped (I used extra dark)

Here is how you make Strawberry, macadamia nut, and chocolate chip scones:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.Mix together the dry ingredients. Using two forks, a pastry blender or your hands, cut in the butter until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs. Make a well in the center and pour in the cream. Fold together just to incorporate - try not to over mix. (The dough will be a little crumbly.) Carefully mix in the fruit and nuts and other additives.Press the dough onto a cutting board and shape into a rectangle about 12" long by 3" wide. Cut the rectangle into quarters, and then either into wedges by cutting the quarters diagonally (making eight large scones) or cut the rectangle into sixths and then into diagonal wedges (making 12 smaller scones).Place onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 15-20 minutes or until beautifully brown.Be careful - they're very hot and you'll want to eat them right away. Let them cool for a minute!Serving Size: 12 scones (or more, depending on how you cut them)Number of Servings: 12Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user STASIASMITH.
