The Recipe
SCONES
2 3/4 cups of Flour
1/3 cup of Sugar
1/2 teaspoon of Salt
1 tablespoon of Baking Powder
1/2 cup of Butter
1 cup of Chocolate Chips
1 cup of Cooked Bacon Chopped
2 eggs
2 teaspoons of Vanilla Extract
1/2 cup of Milk
(bake at 425 degrees for about 15 minutes)
MAPLE GLAZE
2 cups of Powder Sugar
1/2 teaspoon of Maple Syrup
6 tablespoons of Milk
2 3/4 cups of Flour
1/3 cup of Sugar
1/2 teaspoon of Salt
1 tablespoon of Baking Powder
1/2 cup of Butter
1 cup of Chocolate Chips
1 cup of Cooked Bacon Chopped
2 eggs
2 teaspoons of Vanilla Extract
1/2 cup of Milk
(bake at 425 degrees for about 15 minutes)
MAPLE GLAZE
2 cups of Powder Sugar
1/2 teaspoon of Maple Syrup
6 tablespoons of Milk
Dough Step 1
Cut the butter (chilled) into the flour
*if you don't have the proper dough cutter gizmo for that, a food processor also works just fine.
You can use a whisk and simply jab at the mixture until it is the consistency of thick lumpy sand (like you are making a pie crust)
After you have achieved this, go ahead and mix in the remaining ingredients (except for the chocolate chips and bacon)
*definitely use a nice bendy spatula for this task!
if you use the whisk, it all gets stuck inside and is a pain in the booty to get out.
Also avoid using your hands. This dough is very sticky! It has a magical impossible to remove texture. and it is evil. but yummy.
