  4. In a small bowl combine the cream, beaten egg, and vanilla; mix well.
  5. Add this to the flour mixture and stir till just combined; do not overmix.
  6. Knead dough gently on a lightly floured board being careful of the berries.
  7. Roll or pat into a circle that is about 7" round and about 1 1/2" thick.
  8. Cut the circle in half and each half into four pie-shaped wedges.
  9. Place on a baking sheet; brush the tops with egg wash.
