There is nothing quite like starting your day with a little chocolate. These scones are incredibly rich and packed with melty chocolate chunks, making them a favorite in my house for weekend mornings.

To get the best texture, make sure your butter is nice and cold before you mix it into the dry ingredients. This trick keeps the scones flaky and light instead of dense.

🧺 Ingredients

2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup semi sweet chocolate chunks
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon milk
1/4 cup melted chocolate for drizzling

👩‍🍳Instructions

1
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
3
Cut the cold butter into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs.
4
In a separate small bowl, whisk the heavy cream, egg, and vanilla extract together.
5
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir until just combined, then fold in the chocolate chunks.
6
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and pat it into an eight inch circle, then cut it into eight even wedges.
7
Place the wedges on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15 to 18 minutes.
8
Whisk the powdered sugar and milk together to make a glaze, then drizzle it over the cooled scones along with the melted chocolate.

💡 Tips

Store these scones in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. If you want to warm them up, a quick ten seconds in the microwave makes the chocolate chunks soft and gooey again.
