Valentines Day Scones

Valentine’s Day Scones

We can’t wait for you to try these Valentine’s Day Scones! Scones are my daughter’s favorite! She always requests them at coffee shops, so we finally decided to try making them at home. Most recipes for scones involve cutting butter into dry ingredients, similar to how you make a pie dough, which can be a bit tedious. I wanted something simpler.

Enter heavy cream. With heavy cream you get the same richness as butter, but a lot less hassle. Instead of working the butter in with your fingers, you simply stir in the cream with a spoon! These Valentine’s Day Scones are best enjoyed the same day, but you can keep them overnight in a covered container if needed.

Valentine’s Day Scones

Ingredients

 

For icing:

  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon milk
  • 1 Tablespoon seedless strawberry jam

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 415 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, mix together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
  3. Mix together heavy cream and vanilla and add to dry ingredients. Add white chocolate chips. Stir until a dough forms. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Form dough into a circle about 10 inches in diameter. Using a 3 1/2 inch heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut into 8 hearts.
  4. Place hearts on lined baking sheet. Brush tops with heavy cream and sprinkle with raw sugar.
  5. Bake scones until light golden brown, about 16-18 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes on a drying rack. While scones are cooling, in a small bowl mix together powdered sugar, milk and strawberry jam until smooth. (Add more powdered sugar if you prefer a thicker icing.) Drizzle icing over cooled scones and serve.
