Chocolate Cranberry Scones are a delicious marriage of semi-sweet chocolate, tart cranberries and a citrusy orange glaze.
It didn’t take long for me to develop a love affair with those warm, buttery, flavorful scones. I miss the days of daily scones, so I decided to whip up these Chocolate Cranberry Scones.
Part 1:Make the Dough
Stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the butter with a pastry blender.
Part 2:Knead and Freeze
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface, divide, and roll into two 6-inch circles. Cut each circle into 6 wedges, brush with cream and freeze, uncovered on a baking sheet for 30 minutes.
Part 3:Bake
Bake at 400°F for 12-14 minutes.
Part 4:Glaze and Serve
Allow the scones to cool slightly while you prepare the glaze. Drizzle over the scones and serve.
This recipe takes quite a bit of effort but it is well worth it...Want your slice now? Come and bake it.
