Best 7 Chocolate Chip Scones With Peanut Butter Glaze Recipes

CHOCOLATE CHIP PEANUT BUTTER SCONES

Steps:

• Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
• Cut in the butter and peanut butter. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, sour cream, milk, and vanilla. Add to the dry ingredients with the chocolate chips and stir gently till barely combined.
• Pat the dough together in the bowl, then dump out onto a floured counter.
• Pat the dough into an 8" circle. Cut into 8 wedges, and place 1" apart on silpat lined or lightly greased cookie sheets. Bake at 400° for about 12 minutes or till golden brown.
• For glaze: Whisk together ingredients and add enough milk to make a thin icing. Place in a ziplock bag and snip the corner. Squeeze the glaze on top of the warm scones.

PEANUT BUTTER CHOCOLATE CHIP SCONES WITH PEANUT BUTTER GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F. Line a baking sheet with a Silpat or parchment; set aside.
• Scones - In a large bowl, add 2 cups flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, optional salt, and whisk to combine.
• Add the butter, and with a pastry cutter or two forks, cut the butter in. You can use a food processor, but I find not having to wash it is a big time-saver. I smoosh the butter with forks and when it's the size of large marbles, I use my hands and knead it in. It will feel like semi-wet, cool sand. Some larger pea-sized butter clumps are okay; set bowl aside.
• In a small bowl, add the egg, 1/3 cup peanut butter, sour cream, vanilla, and whisk to combine until smooth.
• Pour wet mixture over dry, and fold until just combined with a soft-tipped spatula; don't overmix or scones will be tough. If dough seems very crumbly or isn't coming together, add sour cream, 1 tablespoon at a time, until moist enough to come together.
• Add the chocolate chips and fold to combine.
• Turn dough out onto a Silpat or clean, lightly floured work surface and with lightly floured hands or a spatula, pat dough into an 8-inch round, approximately 2 inches high.
• With a large knife, slice round into 8 equal-sized wedges.
• Using a flat spatula or pie turner, transfer wedges to prepared baking sheet spaced at least 2-inches apart. Do not crowd because scones puff and spread while baking.
• Bake for about 12 to 15 minutes, or until scones are very lightly golden and cooked through. They set up more as they cool; it's critical not to overbake or scones will be dry. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs, but no batter. Because they're baking in quite a hot oven, watch them closely starting after about 11 minutes to ensure the bottoms aren't getting too browned.
• Allow scones to cool on baking tray for about 5 minutes before removing and transferring to a rack to finish cooling. While the scones cool, make the glaze.
• Glaze - In a medium, microwave-safe bowl, add 1/2 cup peanut butter and heat for 30 seconds to soften.
• Add the confections's sugar, 2 tablespoons cream, and whisk together until smooth. Depending on desired consistency, you may need to play with the cream and sugar ratios slightly.
• Evenly drizzle the glaze over the scones before serving or frost them like a frosted sugar cookie, which I prefer. If you drizzle the glaze, you'll likely have extra. It will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 1 month; reheat gently in micro before using again. Scones are best fresh, but will keep airtight at room temperature for up to 3 days. I'm comfortable storing glazed items at room temperature, but if you're not, glaze only the scones you plan to consume immediately; I don't recommend refrigerating scones because they'll dry out.

CHOCOLATE CHIP SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
• Mix together the baking mix and brown sugar in a large bowl. Cut the butter into the baking mix until fine crumbs form. Mix together the eggs, buttermilk and vanilla in a small pitcher. While mixing with a fork, slowly add the wet mix to the dry until just combined. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
• Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Form into a 3/4-inch-thick rectangle, then into 4 equal squares. Cut each square in half, creating 8 triangles. Transfer the triangles to the baking sheet and bake until lightly browned, about 18 minutes. Allow them to cool slightly.
• For the icing: While the scones cool, mix together the milk, vanilla, powdered sugar and salt in a bowl until smooth.
• Drizzle the icing over the cooled scones, then sprinkle with the mini chocolate chips. Allow the icing to set slightly before eating.

CHOCOLATE CHIP SCONES WITH PEANUT BUTTER GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a bowl, stir together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
• With a pastry blender or two knives, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in chocolate chips. Make a well in the center and add buttermilk, egg, and vanilla. Stir just until combined, taking care to not overmix.
• Transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead 5 or 6 times. Pat into an 8" circle and cut into 8 wedges. Transfer to prepared baking sheet, about 1-1/2" apart. Brush each wedge of dough lightly with milk. Then bake until scones are golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool on pan for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
• After removing the scones from the oven, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together all glaze ingredients until smooth. When the scones are mostly cooled (they can be slightly warm yet), drizzle the peanut butter glaze over the scones.
• I believe scones are always best the day they are baked. But this recipe does allow for some advance prep. The unbaked dough freezes really well, enabling you to store the unbaked scones in your freezer and bake them up fresh when desired. Just cut the dough into wedges, place them on a tray in the freezer for an hour and then transfer the frozen wedges to a plastic freezer bag. On the day you want to bake them, take them directly from freezer to baking sheet lined with parchment paper (do not thaw first) and brush with milk. You will need to bake the frozen dough a bit longer, adding about 4 or 5 minutes onto the regular baking time.

• for the peanut butter glaze:
• After removing the scones from the oven, prepare the glaze. In a glass measuring cup, whisk together all glaze ingredients until smooth. When the scones are mostly cooled (they can be slightly warm yet), drizzle the peanut butter glaze over the scones. I put this in the microwave for 30 seconds 2 or 3 times to help it smooth out nicely.
