Best 5 Cookies And Cream Scones Recipes

CREAM SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
• Sift together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Add the butter, cream, and milk; stir until a spongy dough has formed. Turn the dough out onto a lightly-floured surface. Pat the dough into a rectangle about 3/4 inch thick and 7 inches wide. Cut into 6 triangles. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 10 to 13 minutes.

CREAM SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and position a rack in the top third of the oven. Thoroughly combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the center of this mixture, add 1 1/4 cups of cream and stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients with a fork. Work quickly, stirring as little as possible, until a soft, shaggy dough forms. Add more cream, a tablespoon at a time, if the dough seems too dry.
• Use a large serving spoon or cup measure to drop the batter onto an ungreased baking sheet, allowing at least 2 inches between each scone. Brush the top of each with heavy cream and bake until golden, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

COOKIES AND CREAM SCONES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in large bowl; mix well. Cut in 1/2 cup butter with pastry blender or fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in half of chopped cookies.
• Combine whipping cream, eggs and vanilla in small bowl; beat with wire whisk until well mixed. Stir whipping cream mixture into flour mixture just until moistened. Turn dough onto lightly floured surface; knead 8 or 10 times until smooth.
• Pat into 8-inch square on lightly greased baking sheet. Press remaining chopped cookies onto top of dough. Score into 9 equal squares. Score squares diagonally to form 18 small triangles.
• Bake for 15 to 18 minutes or until scones are lightly browned. Cool 10 minutes. Cut along score lines to separate.
• Meanwhile, combine powdered sugar, melted butter and half & half in small bowl until smooth. Drizzle glaze over warm scones. Serve immediately.

PEACHES 'N' CREAM SCONES

Steps:

• For the scones: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grate the frozen butter into a bowl using a box grater. Combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Add the peaches and toss in the flour to coat. Add the butter and toss to combine.
• Stir together the heavy cream, sour cream, egg, vanilla and almond extracts in a medium bowl. Slowly add the cream mixture to the flour mixture, and mix just until a dough comes together. (Make sure not to overwork).
• Turn the dough out onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and shape into a 9-inch disc, about 1 inch thick. Score the dough into 8 wedges, using a knife to cut into but not all the way through the dough. Brush the tops of the scones with cream. Bake until the scones are cooked through and golden brown on top, 20 to 25 minutes. Cut into wedges, then remove to a wire rack to cool until warm.
• Meanwhile, make the glaze: Whisk together the powdered sugar, cream, vanilla, almond extract and salt in a small bowl. Spoon the glaze over the scones before serving.

SOUR CREAM AND FRUIT SCONES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees with a rack in the upper third. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Using the large holes of a box grater, grate butter directly into the dry ingredients, stopping a few times along the way to toss the butter pieces into the flour. Use your fingers to work the butter into slightly smaller pieces. Add cherries and toss to combine.
• In a small bowl, whisk together sour cream and milk. Add to the flour mixture, and use a fork to stir until all the dry flour bits are incorporated, but the dough is still shaggy. Smoosh and knead the dough a few times until it barely holds together, then dump the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface.
• Pat dough to a 1-inch-thick rectangle. Cut into 8 squares, transfer to the prepared sheet, and brush the tops with beaten egg.
• Bake until golden brown, 18 to 22 minutes. Let cool slightly. Scones will keep, covered at room temperature, for 3 days. Reheat, if you like, in a toaster oven or at 350 degrees until warmed through.
