Put the kettle on! These mini scones are sweet and bursting with buttery, chocolatey flavour. It'll be hard to eat just one.
BAKE MODE:
Prevent your screen from going dark while you bake.
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk the cream, corn syrup and egg until well combined; measure out 1 tbsp (15 mL) and set aside for brushing the tops.
Pulse the flour, baking powder and salt in a food processor until combined; add the butter and pulse until crumbly. Transfer to a large bowl. Measure out 2 tbsps (30 mL) of the oats and set aside. Add the remaining oats, pecans and 1 cup (250 mL) chocolate chips to the flour mixture; blend well. Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the cream mixture. Mix until a ragged dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface; pat into an 8 x 6-inch (20 cm x 15 cm) rectangle. Brush with the reserved milk mixture and sprinkle with reserved oats. Using a sharp knife, cut the dough, lengthwise into 3 long strips. Cut each strip into 4 squares, cut each square in half on the angle to make 24 wedges. Transfer to the baking sheet. Bake for 12 minutes or until golden. Melt remaining chocolate in a bowl set over simmering water; drizzle over scones.
