Chocolate Coffee Scones

I love coffee and scones, so I created coffee flavoured scones. It's a great match with the bitterness of coffee and sweet chocolate chips. I like the volume and texture of the scones from Starbucks, so I tried to recreate it in my recipe.

The most important point is mixing it all quickly while everything is still cold.
I have confidence that my scones can compete with those from coffee shops.
Please enjoy while having hot coffee at your home café.
If you make these with a heart shape, it would be a great gift for Valentine’s Day! For 8 scones. Recipe by yaburie

Ingredients

8 servings
  1. 200 gramsCake flour
  2. 60 gramsStrong bread flour
  3. 2 tspBaking powder
  4. 2 tspSugar
  5. 1 largeEgg
  6. 50 gramsButter
  7. 50 mlMilk
  8. 1 tbsp☆ Instant coffee
  9. 1 tbsp☆ Boiling water
  10. 50 gramsChocolate chips
  11. 1 dashCake flour for dusting

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare your ingredients. Chill all the ingredients well in the fridge except for the ☆ ingredients. Cut the butter into 1 cm cubes.

  2. 2

    Mix the coffee powder with boiling water well and add milk. Cool this in the fridge.

  3. 3

    Meanwhile, combine the flour and sugar in a bowl and mix well with a whisk or chopsticks.

  4. 4

    Add the butter at this point and press the butter into the flour using a dough cutter or fork.

  5. 5

    Once mixed, use your fingertips (thumb and index finger) to rub more butter into the flour until the mixture resembles bread crumbles like in this picture.

  6. 6

    Make a well in the centre and add the egg and the milk coffee. Mix together using a cutting motion with rubber spatula.

  7. 7

    Add the chocolate chips before the mixture forms a soft dough. If it's too hard, add more milk. On the other hand, if it's too soft, add a small amount of cake flour.

  8. 8

    When the powder disappears, transfer onto a bench dusted with cake flour. Roll it out to 1.5 cm thick and 18 cm diameter with a rolling pin.

  9. 9

    Cut into 8 shapes like in this picture.

  10. 10

    Line a baking tray with parchment paper and place the scones on the paper, allowing space to expand between each. Bake in an oven preheated to 200°C for 10-15 minutes.

  11. 11

    Bake until the scones puff and turn slightly golden brown! Cool them down on a wire rack.

  12. 12

    Tip: They're still nice when cool, but I recommend putting them in a toaster oven to warm them up. You can store them in the freezer.
