Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the self-raising flour and sugar. Stir to mix evenly.
- Cut the butter into small pieces and add them to the flour mixture. Using your fingertips, rub the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Pour the heavy whipping cream into the flour mixture. Stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.
- Lightly flour a surface and turn the dough out onto it. Gently pat the dough to about 1-inch thickness. Try to handle it as little as possible to keep it light and airy.
- Use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut out the scones. Gather any scraps, gently pat them out again, and continue cutting until all the dough is used.
- Place the scones on the prepared baking sheet. If they are close together, they will help each other rise upwards. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the scones are lightly golden on top.
- Once baked, remove the scones from the oven and transfer them to a wire rack to cool slightly.
- Once cooled, slice the scones horizontally and spread a generous amount of your favorite jam on one half. Optionally, add an extra dollop of cream on top of the jam. Place the other half on top to create a sandwich.
Or simply sprinkle powdered sugar on the scones for a sweet finish.
- Serve the scones fresh. They are best enjoyed warm!
Tips:
- Ensure your butter is cold and cut into small pieces before adding it to the flour mixture for a better texture.
- Don't overwork the dough; mix until just combined to keep the scones tender.
- Use a heart-shaped cookie cutter for a delightful presentation.
- Brush the tops of the scones with a little cream before baking to achieve a beautiful golden color.
- Serve the scones warm with your favorite jam and a generous dollop of whipped cream or clotted cream.
With these Heart Scones, you can create a charming and delicious treat that is sure to win hearts. The simplicity of the ingredients and the elegance of the presentation make these scones perfect for any occasion. Enjoy them with a hot cup of tea, and your afternoon will be complete.
