Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups self-rising flour
- 2 cups ice cream (full-fat, softened)
- 2 tablespoons sugar (optional, for added sweetness)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of self-rising flour with 2 cups of softened full-fat ice cream (choose any flavor) using a wooden spoon or spatula. If you prefer sweeter scones, add 2 tablespoons of sugar and mix well.
Gently fold the ingredients until a thick, sticky dough forms. Avoid over-mixing as this can make the scones dense.
Lightly flour a clean work surface and turn the dough out onto it. Sprinkle a little more flour on top of the dough to prevent sticking.
Use your hands to gently pat the dough into a round disk about 1 inch thick.
Cut the dough into 8 equal wedges using a sharp knife or pastry cutter. Alternatively, use a round cookie cutter to make individual scones.
Transfer the scones to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 13-15 minutes or until the scones are risen and just lightly golden on top.
Remove from the oven and allow the scones to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool further.
Serve the scones warm or at room temperature. Enjoy them plain or with toppings like butter, jam, whipped cream, or even more ice cream!
