I love how the name of this recipe sounds like some sort of exclamation. I think I'm going to start using it. Oh, and these are delicious.
Sweet Cinnamon Scones
Courtesy of The Pioneer Woman
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup sugar
5 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, divided
2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter
3/4 cups heavy cream
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup cinnamon chips
1 cup powdered sugar
Preheat oven to 350°F.
In a large bowl, mix together flour, sugar, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and baking powder. Cut butter into pieces, then cut into dry ingredients with a pastry cutter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in cinnamon chips.
Mix together cream, egg, and vanilla extract. Pour into flour/butter mixture, stirring gently with a fork to combine.
Turn onto work surface (mixture will be very crumbly and falling apart.) Gently press together on the sides as you flatten (or roll, with a rolling pin) the top. Form either into a large circle or a large rectangle.
Cut into wedges (from a circle) or triangles (from a rectangle.) Transfer to a cookie sheet and bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Allow to cool completely.
Mix together powdered sugar and remaining 1 teaspoon cinnamon with enough water to make into a thick but drizzable glaze. Drizzle on scones and serve with coffee.
