Ingredients:
2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
¼ cup Sugar
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ cup unsalted butter chilled
2 ounces cream cheese
1 large egg lightly beaten
2 tablespoons milk
½ cup Fresh Strawberries, hulled, and diced small
½ cup Fresh Raspberries, diced
½ cup Fresh Blueberries

Instructions:
Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400° F. Line a baking sheet with a piece of parchment. Sift flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder into a large bowl. Using a pastry blender, cut in butter and cream cheese until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add egg, milk, diced strawberries and blueberries and mix with a rubber spatula until the dough forms a soft ball. Prepare a clean, flat surface by dusting it with flour and turn the dough out onto it. Divide the dough in half and pat each into a circle approximately 5 inches in diameter. Cut the dough into 6 wedges and transfer the entire disk of dough to the prepared baking sheet. Pre-slicing the scones allows for easy separation but keeping the wedges together during baking ensures the scones will be a bit more moist. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until tops are lightly golden and firm. Transfer to a wire rack and cool for 10 minutes before serving.
