Are you ready to be wowed by my Triple Chocolate Scones recipe? These scones are rich and indulgent. Super chocolatey and gooey like brownies. If you love chocolate, then you will adore these sweet and tasty treats!
Start by making the dough by mixing wet ingredients with dry ingredients. You will get a sticky dough which can be challenging to work with. If your dough is too sticky, add a little more flour. If it seems too dry, add 1-2 tablespoons of heavy cream. Cut into scones and refrigerate before baking. Make a glaze from confectioners’ sugar, vanilla and lemon juice or coffee and dunk the scones in the glaze once cooked. Drizzle melted chocolate over the top and enjoy!
To make Triple Chocolate Scones, you will need the following ingredients:
Place 1⅔ cups of all-purpose flour, ⅓ cup of cocoa powder, ½ a cup of granulated sugar, 2½ teaspoons of baking powder and ½ a teaspoon each of ground cinnamon and salt in a large bowl.
Use a box grater to grate ½ a cup of frozen butter. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix it with the dry ingredients until it comes together to make pea-sized crumbs. Place in the refrigerator while you mix the wet ingredients together.
Whisk ½ a cup and 1 tablespoon of heavy cream, 1 large egg and 1½ teaspoons of pure vanilla extract together in a small bowl.
Pour the cream mixture over the flour mixture and add 4 ounces of chopped chocolate. Mix together until there are no visible dry ingredients.
Transfer the dough to a work surface and using floured hands, work the dough into a ball as best you can.
Press the dough ball into an 8-inch disc and cut into 8 wedges using a knife.
Place scones 2-3 inches apart on a lined baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 400 °F.
Bake the chilled scones in the oven for 22-25 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Remove the cookies from the oven and leave them to cool while preparing the glaze.
Place 1/2 cup of confectioners’ sugar, 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice in a bowl and whisk together. Dip warm scones into the glaze and place each one on a wire rack. Place a baking sheet underneath to catch the glaze as it drips off the scones.
Melt 4 ounces of chocolate in the microwave and drizzle the melted chocolate over each scone.
Serve with a mug of your favorite tea.
