*Recipe from Hungry Couple
INGREDIENTS:
For Scones:
2 3/4 Cups all-purpose flour
1/2 Cup granulated sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 Stick (8 tbsp) unsalted butter, chilled
3/4 Cup cream
1/2 Cup Satsuma mandarin orange juice
1 tsp Satsuma mandarin orange zest
For Glaze:
1 Cup powdered sugar
2 tbsp milk
1 tsp Satsuma mandarin orange zest
Pinch of salt
INSTRUCTIONS:
Add the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt to a large bowl. Grade in the stick of unsalted butter using a large box grader. Using your fingers, mix the butter in until it's coated in the flour but mixture is still lumpy.
Add in the cream, juice and zest. Mix with a spoon and turn the mixture out onto a lightly floured surface. Work it together with your hands until you have a rectangular piece. Fold it in half, flatten out again, give it a quarter turn and fold over again. Repeat until you've made 4 folds.
Roll it out to a circle that's approximately 1" thick and cut it into 8 pieces. Place the scones on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and place in the freezer while you pre-heat the oven to 425°F. Bake for 20 minutes or until lightly golden brown.
To make the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, zest and salt until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled scones.
Enjoy!
