                         Dough
   2 3/4           cups  All-Purpose Flour -- Unbleached, (326g)

      1/4           cup  granulated sugar -- (50g)

   1         tablespoon  baking powder

   1                cup  milk chocolate chunks -- or chips, (170g)
   2              large  eggs
   2          teaspoons  vanilla extract
      3/4           cup  half and half -- or milk, (170g)
                         Glaze
   1                cup  confectioners' sugar -- (113g)
   1         tablespoon  malted milk powder

These tender, lightly sweet scones are gilded with a quick drizzle of 
malt-flavored glaze for an extra touch of flavor

PREP: 25 mins
BAKE: 22 to 25 mins
TOTAL: 53 mins
SERVING SIZE: 1 scone, 94g

To make the dough: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, malted 
milk powder, sugar, salt, and baking powder. Work in the butter until 
the mixture is unevenly crumbly; some larger bits of butter will 
remain. Stir in the chocolate chunks (or chips).

In a separate bowl or large measuring cup, whisk together the eggs, 
vanilla, and half & half (or milk). Add to the dry ingredients and 
stir until the dough is evenly moistened and holds together.

Line a baking sheet with parchment, and flour the parchment. Scrape 
the dough onto the parchment and divide it in half. Shape each half 
into a 6" disk about 3/4" thick, leaving a couple of inches between 
the two disks.

Use a wet bench knife to divide each circle into six wedges. Pull 
every other wedge away from the circle, to ensure all the scones bake evenly.

Loosely cover the unbaked scone dough with plastic wrap and place in 
the freezer while you preheat the oven to 400F. When the oven is up 
to temperature, bake the scones for 22 to 25 minutes, until the edges 
looked fully baked.

Remove the scones from the oven and cool on the pan for 5 minutes 
before transferring to a rack to finish cooling.

To make the glaze: Sift the confectioners' sugar and malted milk 
powder through a strainer into a small bowl. Add the milk gradually, 
stirring as you go; add just enough milk to make a drizzle-able 
glaze. Drizzle over the cooled scones.

Store any leftovers, well wrapped, at room temperature for several 
days; freeze for longer storage.

Tips: To make chocolate malt scones, simply replace 1/4 cup of the 
flour with 1/4 cup unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa.
