2 cups Flour
4 teaspoons Baking Powder
3/4 teaspoons Salt
1/2 cups Sugar
4 Tablespoons Butter
2 Tablespoons Butter Flavored Shortening
3/4 cups Heavy Cream
1 whole Egg
2 teaspoons Maple Flavoring
_____
FROSTING INGREDIENTS:
1/2 cups Powdered Sugar
2 Tablespoons Milk Or Cream
2 teaspoons Maple Flavoring

1
I use a KitchenAid stand mixer. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2
Using the dough hook, combine flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Mix well. Cut butter and shortening into chunks and add to the flour mixture; blend until incorporated.
3
In a separate bowl, combine cream with beaten egg and maple flavoring, then add to the dry ingredients. Mix until it forms a ball - do not over mix. Turn dough out onto a floured surface. Roll dough out and cut into your preferred shape-I use a star cookie cutter and place on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet. Give an inch between scones for spreading and rising. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes.
4
While baking, in a separate bowl, combine powdered sugar, milk and flavoring. Mix well. When scones are still hot, place them on a cooling rack with a jelly roll pan underneath. Pour or brush the frosting over the top of the scones. It will melt into a lovely glaze.
