If you love chocolate, these scones are going to be your new favorite morning indulgence. They are rich, tender, and absolutely packed with chocolate chunks in every single bite.

I love serving these warm when the chocolate inside is still soft and gooey. My best tip is to keep your butter cold, as that helps create the perfect flaky texture we all want in a scone.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chunks
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 2 tablespoons melted chocolate for drizzling

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.

  3. 3

    Cut the cold butter into the dry mixture using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs.

  4. 4

    In a separate small bowl, whisk the heavy cream, egg, and vanilla together.

  5. 5

    Pour the liquid mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

  6. 6

    Fold in the chocolate chunks gently.

  7. 7

    Turn the dough onto a floured surface and pat it into an eight inch circle, then cut it into eight even wedges.

  8. 8

    Place the wedges on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15 to 18 minutes.

  9. 9

    Let the scones cool completely before mixing the powdered sugar and milk to create the glaze.

  10. 10

    Drizzle the glaze and the melted chocolate over the cooled scones before serving.

๐Ÿ’ก Tips

Store these scones in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. They taste wonderful if you pop them in the microwave for ten seconds before eating. You can also freeze the unbaked dough wedges for a quick treat later.
