Ingredients

2 cups flour

2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup sugar

6 tablespoons butter

1/2 cup dried apricots - chopped

1/2 cup butterscotch chips

1 egg, slightly beaten

buttermilk, enough with the egg to equal 1 cup

Directions

In a mixing bowl combine flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Cut in butter with a pastry blender (or the old fashioned way with two table knives) until mixture resembles course crumbs. Stir in apricots and butterscotch chips.

Add buttermilk to lightly mixed egg in a one cup measure - fill to top of cup. Slowly stir buttermilk/egg mixture into mixing bowl until mixture just barely holds together. Add a tiny bit more buttermilk if necessary.

Drop by generous spoonfuls onto a cookie sheet covered with parchment paper.

Bake at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes (I find 18 minutes is usually perfect.) Cool on cooling rack and serve.
