Directions

1. Combine 2 cups flour, the granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Add cubed butter and use a pastry blender or 2 table knives to cut butter into the dry ingredients until pieces of butter are roughly the size of peas. Set aside.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup half-and-half, 1 egg, and 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract.
3. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and add liquid ingredients. Use a spatula to combine them, stirring and folding ingredients together until dough is rough and shaggy, but no bits of loose dry ingredients remain.
