Spicy Fruit Scones

1/3 cup butter-chilled
1 3/4 cups all-purpose or whole wheat flour
3 tablespoon granulated sugar
2 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 tsp. cinnamon
1/8 tsp. ground cloves
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup mixed dried fruit, diced use figs, dates etc.
6 tablespoon half and half
1 egg, beaten

Preheat oven to 400:. Cut butter into flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and cloves with a pastry blender in a large bowl until mixture resembles crumbs. Stir in 1 egg, fruit and just enough half and half so the the dough leaves the side of the bowl and forms a ball. Turn onto a lightly floured surface, gently roll the dough in flour to coat. Knead lightly 10 times. Pat or roll dough to 1/2 inch thick; cut with a floured 2 1/2 inch biscuit cutter. You can also cut into shapes with a sharp knife. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet, brush with remaining egg. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet. Serve warm.
