📝 Instructions

11 steps

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

3. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, cut the cold cubed butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

4. In a small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, cooled coffee, and vanilla extract.

5. Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing just until a dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.

6. Gently fold in the chopped toasted hazelnuts.

7. Lightly flour a clean surface and turn the dough out onto it. Pat or roll the dough into a circle about 1-inch thick.

8. Cut the dough into 8 wedges (like a pie) and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each scone.

9. Bake the scones in the preheated oven for 14-16 minutes, or until they are golden brown around the edges.

10. Optional: If you'd like to add a glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons of brewed coffee until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled scones.

11. Serve the scones warm or at room temperature with your favorite coffee or tea.
