Cocoa Peanut Butter Scones

Another scone recipe?!? yes, i’m really on a roll with these.

You'll need:

• 1 cup AP flour

• 1 cup cake flour

• 4 tablespoons cocoa powder

• 4 tablespoons powdered peanut butter

• 1 tablespoon baking powder

• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar

• 5 tablespoons butter

• 1 cup + 2 tablespoons heavy cream

• 1/4 cup chocolate chips

Choco drizzle:

• 1/4 cup chocolate chips

• 2 tablespoons milk (almond or regular)

Instructions:

1. Start by putting your butter in the freezer for 5-10 minutes, this will help with grating it.

2. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

3. Sift AP flour, cake flour, cocoa powder, powdered peanut butter, and baking powder into a large mixing bowl. Add in the sugar and then stir until its all evenly mixed.

4. Use a box or handheld grater - the large grate holes - to grate the butter. Use your fingers to mix the butter in and break it up into even smaller pieced until the mix is crumbly but holds some shape when you squeeze it in your hand.

5. Add in the chocolate chips and stir.

6. Make a divot in the center of your dry ingredients, pour in the heavy cream and then slowly incorporate the flour to create a dough (you can use your hands for this part too). Lightly dust a clean surface with flour and then pour the dough out onto the surface. Gently roll and fold it into a ball, kneading until it holds together, so that it's all sticking together then press it down into a 1 inch thick circle or rectangle. Cut the dough into at least 8 pieces. You can cut them into squares or triangles of different sizes.

7. Place the scones on your baking sheet (w/ parchment paper!) and bake for 15 minutes.

8. When they're done baking, add the chocolate chips and almond milk to a small bowl and microwave for 30 seconds then stir until mixed and smooth. Drizzle melted chocolate on top of each scone and enjoy!
