About the Recipe: Scones are like an American biscuit, having similar ingredients and techniques. The scones that typically are found in American bakeries are slightly sweetened with some add-ins. This recipe features an almond flavored scone with layers of chocolate coconut filling, forming a softer center and crunchy crust. Almond glaze sweetens the scones and are delicious with a cup of hot tea or coffee.

Prepare the Almond Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the confectioners’ sugar and almond extract with 1 Tablespoon milk until the glaze is spreadable.
If desired: Drizzle glaze over scones or serve with your favorite jam.
Cook’s Note: Do not overmix your dough for a tender scone. Also, if the coconut coated strips of dough break, just piece them back together. This is a very forgiving dough. No matter what happens, it turns out looking beautiful and delicious. If the coconut you use is dry looking in the filling, use 7 Tablespoons condensed milk.
With a sharp knife, gently slice to separate the 8 individual scones; but don’t pull them apart. Let them cool. Serve scones warm or at room temperature.
Serves: 8
