Chocolate Pecan Scones

Preheat oven to 400°(F). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
In a large bowl combine flour, salt, baking powder, brown sugar and cinnamon; mix well to combine.
Cut the butter into small cubes then work it into the mixture (using your fingers, two forks, or a pastry cutter) until it resembles a coarse meal.
In a glass measuring cup whisk together the egg, cream, and vanilla. Add the liquid mixture to the flour mixture. Add in the chocolate chips and pecans. Use a fork to stir everything together until just moistened. Don't worry if the dough looks shaggy! 
Empty the loose dough out onto a clean, lightly floured work surface. Knead the dough a few times, then  shape it into an 8-inch disc. 
Cut the disc into 8 wedges and carefully transfer them to the prepared sheet, placing them 2" apart.
Lightly brush each scone with the egg wash. 
Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until light golden brown.
Allow scones to cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheet. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar before serving!
