Best 5 Triple Chocolate Scones With Peanut Butter Glaze Recipes

TRIPLE CHOCOLATE SCONES

Steps:

• Whisk flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together in a large bowl. Grate the frozen butter using a box grater. Add it to the flour mixture and combine with a pastry cutter, two forks, or your fingers until the mixture comes together in pea-sized crumbs. Place in the refrigerator or freezer as you mix the wet ingredients together.
• Whisk heavy cream, egg, and vanilla extract together in a small bowl. Drizzle over the flour mixture, add the 6 ounces of chopped chocolate, then mix together until everything appears moistened.
• Pour onto the counter and, with floured hands, work dough into a ball as best you can. Dough will be sticky. If it's too sticky, add a little more flour. If it seems too dry, add 1-2 more Tablespoons heavy cream. Press into an 8-inch disc and, with a sharp knife or bench scraper, cut into 8 wedges.
• Place scones on a plate or lined baking sheet (if your fridge has space!) and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400°F (204°C).
• Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat. After refrigerating, arrange scones 2-3 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet(s).
• Bake for 22-25 minutes or until edges and top are set. Chocolate scones are done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and cool for a few minutes as you prepare the glaze.
• Whisk the confectioners' sugar, vanilla, and water together. Dunk warm scones into the glaze and place on a wire rack with a baking sheet or paper towels underneath to catch the glaze as it drips down. The glaze will set after several minutes, but you can serve right away. Before serving, melt the 4 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate in the microwave in 15 second increments, stirring after each increment until melted. Drizzle over scones.
• Leftover glazed or un-glazed scones keep well at room temperature for 2 days or in the refrigerator for 5 days.

TRIPLE CHOCOLATE SCONES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead a few times. Shape the dough into a 7-inch (18 cm) round and cut into eight wedges. Place them on the baking sheet.
• Bake for about 20 minutes or until they are firm around the edges but a bit soft in the center. A toothpick inserted into the center of a scone will come out clean. Cool on a wire rack.

TRIPLE CHOCOLATE SCONES WITH PEANUT BUTTER GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Add the milk chocolate, cocoa powder and sugar to the bowl of your food processor. (You'll need a fairly big food processor - mine is 14 cups. If yours is smaller, I might switch to a stand mixer after grinding the chocolate.) Pulse until the chocolate is finely ground. Check the consistency of the mixture after every few pulses- overprocessing will cause the chocolate to melt. Add the flour, baking powder and salt to the food processor and pulse 5 or 6 times to mix completely. Add the butter cubes and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal, about 10-12 pulses. Add the bittersweet chocolate to the bowl (don't pulse to incorporate yet). In a measuring cup combine the egg and milk and use a fork to break up the egg and incorporate. Add this mixture to the food processor and pulse 3 or 4 times to incorporate in the dough. The dough will not have come together completely yet, that's fine. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface. Fold it over on itself a few times to bring it together. Divide the dough into 3 equal pieces. Shape each into a 5-inch disk. Cut each disk into 4 wedges. Transfer the scones to the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 1/2 inches between them. (I froze mine for about 15 minutes here, just to be sure the ingredients were cold and the scones would maintain their shape, but you don't have to.) Bake for about 15 minutes, or until the scones have risen and are slightly firm to the touch on top. To make the glaze: Combine the peanut butter and butter in a small saucepan and set over medium-low heat. Whisking frequently, cook until the mixture is melted and smooth. Remove the pan from the heat and add the confectioners' sugar and vanilla. Whisk until smooth and combined, then gradually add the milk until you reach a thick, but pourable, consistency for glazing. Drizzle over the scones and allow to set.

CHOCOLATE CHIP SCONES WITH PEANUT BUTTER GLAZE

Steps:

• for the chocolate chip scones:
• Preheat oven to 425°. 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, vanilla and egg. 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.
• 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.
• 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.
