Coffee Cream Scones with Coffee Glaze
Author: Sarah Bates | The Chef Next Door
Makes 8 scones
Ingredients:
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 Tablespoon espresso powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 Tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed
3/4 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon Nielsen-Massey Pure Vanilla Extract
1 teaspoon Nielsen-Massey Pure Coffee Extract
For the glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar
2 Tablespoons Nielsen-Massey Pure Coffee Extract
2 teaspoons milk
Nielsen-Massey Madagascar Bourbon Pure Vanilla Sugar, for sprinkling
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, espresso powder, baking powder and salt. Cut in the butter with a pastry blender until the mixture is combined. Whisk the cream and extracts together and add it to the dry ingredients. Fold in until incorporated, and then use your hands to work it together into a ball of dough. Be careful not to overwork the dough.
Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet and form into a 3/4-inch round. Refrigerate the dough for an hour before baking.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Slice the dough into 8 triangles and spread apart slightly on the baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of one of the scones comes out clean. Transfer to a wire rack to cool before glazing.
To make the glaze, whisk together the sugar, coffee extract and milk until smooth. Spoon the glaze over the scones, then sprinkle generously with the vanilla sugar. Allow the glaze to set for a few a minutes before serving.
Bon Appรฉtit!
