Scones! I love any scone - be it my savory scones, or in this case, a new addition to my sweet scone line-up, chocolate! My Decadent Chocolate Scones are the perfect compliment to your day. You'll love the rich taste that this chocolate scone offers, mixed with its light and airy traditional scone texture. This scone pairs perfectly with your morning coffee without leaving you feeling 'overstuffed' or 'weighed down.' As Brand Ambassador for Rodelle, they provided me with their Vanilla Paste and Chocolate Extract, which enhances the depth and richness of these scones, and the Gourmet Dutch Processed Cocoa is a true "must have" for your baking pantry. I hope you bake some of these for yourself! ~Enjoy! Diane Decadent Chocolate Scones Ingredients: 2 2/3 cups All-Purpose Flour 1/3 cup Rodelle Gourmet Dutch Processed Baking Cocoa 1/2 teaspoon instant espresso granules 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1 tablespoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 3/4 teaspoon table salt 8 tablespoons cold butter, cut into small dice 1 1/2 cups semisweet or bittersweet chocolate chips 1/2 teaspoon Rodelle Vanilla Paste 1/2 teaspoon Rodelle Chocolate Extract 1 large egg 3/4 cup + more as needed, Milk powdered sugar, for dusting *optional Directions:
**BAKING TIP: Mix 3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar with 1 teaspoon cocoa powder, sprinkle on your parchment-lined (or lightly greased) baking sheet. Use this sugar mixture in place of the usual flour, to keep the scones from sticking to the pan/parchment as you shape scones. Kitchen Note: Want to switch it up a bit? Add some heat to your chocolate scones with a pinch of cayenne or red pepper flake. Special thank you to Rodelle for providing me with their fabulous baking products.

I have never tried vanilla bean paste before, but have heard that it is awesome. Love these chocolate scones. Would be delicious with a cup of coffee.
