- To make scones:
- - Preheat to 425 F
- - in a bowl combine all dry ingredients and stir I till incorporated
- - then add butter cut in small pieces and break it down until there are no chunks of butter left (should look a bit like breadcrumbs)
- - add the remaining liquids and work the dough (try not to overwork)
- - create scone shapes by making a round flat pie and cutting it into slices (like pizza)
- - brush tops with heavy cream for browning
- - place on parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 12-15 min
- Glaze:
- Throw everything except heavy cream into a sauce pan and melt whisking frequently.
- Bring to a slow boil and reduce the heat and add the heavy cream
- Bring to a boil again and let it thicken
- Then all that is left to do is to dunk the cooled scones into the glaze...and then enjoy :)
- Note: this glaze is sticky and doesn't harden like a typical confectioners sugar glaze.
