How to Make Lemon Curd And White Chocolate Filled Scones

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  3. Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or two knives until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Stir in 3/4 cup buttermilk, 1 teaspoon grated ginger, and 1 cup white chocolate chips until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
  5. Divide the dough in half.
  6. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one half of the dough into a 7-inch circle.
  7. Spread 1/2 cup lemon curd evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border.
  8. Roll out the remaining dough into a 7-inch circle.
  9. Carefully place the second circle of dough over the lemon curd.
  10. Gently pinch the edges to seal.
  11. Cut the dough into 8 wedges, making cuts about 1/4 inch deep.
  12. Sprinkle the top with coarse white sugar (optional).
  13. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
  14. Let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet.
  15. Meanwhile, melt 4 ounces of white chocolate in a double boiler or microwave (in 30 second intervals, stirring frequently).
  16. Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the scones in a zig-zag pattern.
  17. Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftover scones in an airtight container at room temperature.
