I love making scones because they are so quick to get in the oven. They bring all the deliciousness of biscuits into one sweet treat. I love the many different flavors you can add to personalize them. My favorite is blueberries, but my kids love chocolate chips. I often end up dividing the dough in half so that half is for me and half is for them to make each of our favorite flavors.
Material notes
- All-Purpose Flour: All intents and purposes are yours to go. Can use bread or pastry flour, but it will change the texture a bit.
- Sugar: Can reduce by half if you prefer less sweet scones.
- Cold Butter: Can use a cheese grater (small side), food processor or pastry cutter. Refrigerate for 15 minutes before grating to help grate it into smaller pieces.
- Large Egg: Adding eggs will make the scones lighter and richer. This is optional and you can leave it out if you want your scones to be thicker.
- Heavy Cream: If you are going to substitute, use buttermilk to maintain the same thickness.
- Mini Chocolate Chips: It is important that they are mini. Regular chocolate chips will coat the dough.
- Icing: The icing is optional, but it sure makes them look pretty and extra delicious.
Save for later
These scones freeze beautifully so you can pull them out of the freezer the night before and bake them fresh in the morning. Make dough, cut into wedges and freeze individually on a cookie sheet. Once frozen, wrap in parchment paper and store in a reusable plastic freezer bag. These will stay good for up to three months in the fridge. Thaw before baking.
