COPYCAT STARBUCKS BEAN SCONES

Starbucks beans scons is truly one of my favorite guilty pleasures.I love stopping in for a coffee or frappuccino whenever I need a little pick-me-up. My daughter often accompanies me on my Starbucks runs and always requests her own iced tea and sweet— more often than not choosing one of the popular Petite Vanilla Bean Scones because of their small size.

I, too, love these little treats because they’re just the right size (and they’re quite tasty too!). Because most of my visits to Starbucks occur in the afternoon, I never get the chance to enjoy these scones with my morning coffee … where I would undoubtedly dip them in my cup for an even more delicious experience!
