FOR THE SCONES:
2 cups All-purpose Flour
1/3 cups Sugar, Plus More For Sprinkling
1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoons Salt
1 stick Cold, Unsalted Butter, Cut Into 1/2-inch Cubes
1 cup Eggnog, Divided
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
FOR THE GLAZE:
1/4 cups Eggnog, For Thinning (add More If Needed)
2 cups Powdered Sugar
1/4 teaspoons Salt

1
Preheat oven to 450u00b0F.
2
Stir together first 4 ingredients in a large bowl. Cut butter into flour mixture with a pastry blender (I used my hands, and ran it through my fingers) until crumbly and mixture resembles small peas. Freeze the dough for 5 minutes.
3
Remove the bowl from the freezer. Pour in 2 tablespoons of eggnog and the vanilla, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened.
4
Gently press or pat dough into a scone pan (if you don't have one, put the dough in a standard sized 9-inch round cake pan then cut the round into 8 wedges and place wedges 2 inches apart on a baking sheet that you've lined with parchment paper.)
5
Brush tops of wedges with remaining 2 tablespoons of eggnog just until moistened. Sprinkle a little sugar over each one and rub it in.
6
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden. Remove pan from oven. Let the scones cool completely before removing them from the pan.
7
Meanwhile, in a medium sized bowl whisk together eggnog, powdered sugar, and salt until it reaches your desired consistency (should be smooth yet as thick as possible). Glaze the scones and enjoy!
