DOUBLE CHOCOLATE-CHERRY SCONES

These are so decadent tasting, but surprisingly have very little chocolate! The bonus they cook rather quick! I use black onyx cocoa powder from the Savory Spice Shop®- it allows for a much deeper, darker, and richer chocolate taste that regular Dutch processed cocoa powder just doesn't have.

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Remove from the oven, transfer to a cooling rack, and cool for 15 minutes.

Categories     Scones

Time 25m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup sugar
3/4 cup cold unsalted butter
3/4 cup cream (light or heavy)
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
3 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted
3 ounces white chocolate, melted**
confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Stack two baking sheets together and line top one with parchment paper (if baking scones freeform). Or, spray six to eight 3 1/2 inch individual tart tins with non-stick cooking spray.
  • In a food processor, place flour, sugar, salt and baking powder. Process to combine. Add the butter and pulse to cut it into dry mixture. Process until you have a coarse, mealy texture.
  • Turn mixture out into a large bowl. Make a well in the center and add egg, vanilla and most of the cream. Stir to make a soft dough. Fold in chocolate chips. Texture should be between a dough and a firm batter. With an ice cream scoop, drop scone dough into tart tins or onto baking sheet.
  • Bake until lightly browned (15-18 minutes).
  • Remove from oven and cool in tart tins or on baking sheet until slightly cooled, about 15 minutes.
  • Place parchment paper or waxed paper under cooling racks; transfer cooled scones to racks. Drizzle both melted chocolates over scones. After the chocolate has set, dust tops of scones with confectioners' sugar. Place scones on serving plate. Serve slightly warm or at room temperature with Creme Fraiche or Devonshire Clotted Cream (optional). Makes 6-8 scones.
  • **Tip:
  • When melting White Chocolate, be careful not to burn it. White Chocolate or milk chocolate will burn much easier than dark chocolate as they have a much higher milk solid content. When melting white chocolate or milk chocolate, place chocolate in a double boiler on very low heat. Stir constantly, and keep your eye on it continually while melting.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor.
  • Be sure to chill the dough before baking to prevent the scones from spreading too much.
  • Bake the scones until they are just cooked through, as overbaking will make them dry.
  • Serve the scones warm with your favorite toppings, such as butter, jam, or cream.

Conclusion:

Double chocolate scones are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With their rich chocolate flavor and soft, flaky texture, these scones are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're in the mood for a sweet and satisfying snack, give these double chocolate scones a try. You won't be disappointed!
