Scones
2 1/2 c. all purpose flour
1/4 c. granulated sugar
1 Tbsp baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
6 Tbsp. unsalted butter, cold
1 beaten egg
1/2 c. half & half or light cream
1 c. chopped mango (fresh or frozen)
Icing
1 c. powdered sugar
4 tsp. milk or half & half
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1. Preheat oven to 400° F.
2. In a medium mixing bowl, combine flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt. Mix well; set aside.
3. Add cold butter in very small pieces (I like to use a cheese grater and grate the butter directly into the mixing bowl).
4. Use a fork or pastry blender to combine butter with dry ingredients.
5. Add beaten egg and half & half or light cream. Mix just until combined.
6. Fold in chopped mango.
7. Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface; form it into an 8 inch disc. Cut into 8 equal wedges and place wedges on an ungreased baking sheet.
8. Bake at 400° for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
9. Cool 10 minutes on baking sheet, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Once cool, combine icing ingredients and drizzle scones with icing as desired.
