Dark Chocolate Pumpkin Scones
- 2-3/4 cups Flour
- 1/3 cups Sugar
- 4 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 3/4 teaspoons Salt
- 3/4 teaspoons Cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoons Ground Ginger
- 1/4 teaspoons Nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoons Allspice
- 1 stick Butter
- 2/3 cups Chopped Dark Chocolate
- 1 cup Pumpkin Puree (canned Or Homemade)
- 2 whole Medium Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
- 1/3 cups Plain Or Vanilla Yogurt
- 3 Tablespoons Milk
- 1/4 cups Pumpkin Seeds
- 2 Tablespoons Cinnamon Sugar
- Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and spices in a large mixing bowl. Cut in the butter with a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the chocolate. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the pumpkin, eggs, vanilla and yogurt. Carefully fold the pumpkin mixture into the dry mix without over-working the dough.
- Take out a sheet pan and line it with parchment paper. Divide the dough into 2 equal pieces on another sheet of parchment paper on your work surface. Shape each section of dough into a flat, round disk, about 6 inches in diameter. Brush them with milk and sprinkle with pumpkin seeds and cinnamon sugar. Cut each circle into 6 wedges and pull the wedges apart, so they're about 3/4 inch away from each other. Put the scones onto the prepared baking sheet and put the sheet pan in the freezer for 45 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 425 F. Pull the pan of cold scones out of the freezer and put it into the heated oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
