Don’t these Espresso Chocolate Chip Scones just sound absolutely delicious? A simple dough recipe that makes the best, soft, dense and fluffy scones. Filled with little, finely chopped, dark chocolate bits complementing the touch of espresso flavor so well.
To make Espresso Chocolate Chip Scones, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 400 °F and line 2 baking sheets with baking parchment paper or mats.
In a mixing bowl, whisk 3½ cups of flour, ½ cup of sugar, 2 tablespoons of espresso powder, 1½ tablespoons of baking powder and ¾ teaspoons of kosher salt.
Add 2¼ cups of cream and stir to mix through until combined and moist.
Fold in 4 ounces of finely chopped dark chocolate bits.
Knead a few times until dough comes together in a loose ball.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and shape into 4 equal balls. Shape each ball into circles about 1-inch thick then cut each circle into 6 equal wedges. Transfer to the lined baking sheets, about 1-2-inches spaced out.
Brush scones with remaining heavy cream and sprinkle with loads of raw sugar.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes until the bases are lightly browned.
Cool for a few minutes before serving at tea time! Enjoy!
