Chocolate Chip Scones (using a food processor)

Today's experiment is testing the effects of using a food processor to cut in the butter for scones instead of a pastry knife.  Here is my standard recipe for chocolate chip scones.  The idea for this procedure modification comes from my friend Elizabeth who's blog is here.

Experimental procedure:
I cut the cold stick of butter into 16 cubes (see picture to left).  Followed standard recipe with exception of using food processor on the "pulse" setting to cut in butter.

Results and Observations:
The experiment results are in and I am happy to report my findings are positive.  The scones are have desired light and fluffy inside and slight crisp on the outside.  Elizabeth's results, that a food processor can be successfully used to cut in butter, have been experimentally verified.  Let it also be noted using the food processor was significantly faster than a pastry knife.
