Chocolate Chip Scones With Peanut Butter Glaze Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
• Mix together the baking mix and brown sugar in a large bowl. Cut the butter into the baking mix until fine crumbs form. Mix together the eggs, buttermilk and vanilla in a small pitcher. While mixing with a fork, slowly add the wet mix to the dry until just combined. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
• Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Form into a 3/4-inch-thick rectangle, then into 4 equal squares. Cut each square in half, creating 8 triangles. Transfer the triangles to the baking sheet and bake until lightly browned, about 18 minutes. Allow them to cool slightly.
• For the icing: While the scones cool, mix together the milk, vanilla, powdered sugar and salt in a bowl until smooth.
• Drizzle the icing over the cooled scones, then sprinkle with the mini chocolate chips. Allow the icing to set slightly before eating.

Steps:

• for the chocolate chip scones:
• Preheat oven to 425°. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a bowl, stir together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
• With a pastry blender or two knives, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in chocolate chips. Make a well in the center and add buttermilk, vanilla and egg. Stir just until combined, taking care to not overmix.
• Transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead 5 or 6 times. Pat into an 8'' circle and cut into 8 wedges. Transfer to prepared baking sheet, about 1-1/2'' apart. Brush each wedge of dough lightly with milk. Then bake until scones are golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool on pan for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
• for the peanut butter glaze:
• After removing the scones from the oven, prepare the glaze. In a glass measuring cup, whisk together all glaze ingredients until smooth. When the scones are mostly cooled (they can be slightly warm yet), drizzle the peanut butter glaze over the scones. I put this in the microwave for 30 seconds 2 or 3 times to help it smooth out nicely.
• I believe scones are always best the day they are baked. But this recipe does allow for some advance prep. The unbaked dough freezes really well, enabling you to store the unbaked scones in your freezer and bake them up fresh when desired. Just cut the dough into wedges, place them on a tray in the freezer for an hour and then transfer the frozen wedges to a plastic freezer bag. On the day you want to bake them, take them directly from freezer to baking sheet lined with parchment paper (do not thaw first) and brush with milk. You will need to bake the frozen dough a bit longer, adding about 4 or 5 minutes onto the regular baking time.

Steps:

• In the top of a double boiler or in a bowl set over simmering water, combine the chocolate, peanut butter, and corn syrup.
• Cook, whisking often, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
• Remove from the heat and whisk in the half-and-half, beating until smooth. Use while still warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Combine flour, chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Gently stir in heavy cream using a fork until dough holds together and is not sticky, being careful not to over mix.
• Scoop batter onto a baking sheet using a 1/2-cup scoop.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 minutes.
