I love a scone. Love them. But a Raspberry Scone—somebody catch me please— because I faint for these. The sweet, tangy raspberry addition against this buttery dough—I'm talking the herald of a new scone dawn!

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 6 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 12 tablespoons cold unsalted butter cut into pieces
  • 3/4 cup cold heavy cream plus more for brushing
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 heaping cup frozen raspberries
  • Coarse sugar for sprinkling optional

Instructions
 

  • Get ready. Preheat your oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  • Mix dry ingredients. In a food processor, pulse the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt just until combined.

  • Add butter. Scatter the cold butter pieces over the dry mix and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Combine wet ingredients. In a small bowl, whisk together the cold heavy cream and vanilla extract, then drizzle over the flour mixture. Pulse until the dough starts to come together.

  • Incorporate raspberries. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and sprinkle frozen raspberries on top. Gently fold the dough over the raspberries to distribute them evenly.
  • Shape the dough. Cut the dough in half and stack one half on top of the other. Flatten into a rectangle, then repeat the stacking and flattening 3-4 times. Finally, shape into an 8x5 inch rectangle.
  • Cut scones. Slice the dough into six even squares, pressing straight down with the knife.
  • Prepare for baking. Place the scones on the prepared baking sheet, brush with extra cream, and sprinkle with coarse sugar if you like a sweet crunch.
  • Bake to perfection. Bake for 15-17 minutes or until the scones are golden brown at the edges. Let them cool a bit before serving.
