Ingredients
-
1 pack scotty's everyday biscuit mix
-
1/4 cup granulated erythritol plus one extra tbsp
-
8 tbsp cold butter (grass fed preferred)
- 1 lightly beaten egg
-
1/2 cup ice water
-
3/4 cup no sugar added dark chocolate chips
-
2 tbsp heavy cream
-
1 cup powdered erythritol
-
2-3 tbsp heavy cream
Directions
Place refrigerated butter in the freezer for at least 20 minutes. Prepare 1 cup of water and ice for 1/2 cup ice water. Preheat oven to 400° F with a rack in the middle of the oven.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, empty the contents of the package. Add the 1/4 cup of granular erythritol. Blend well.
Grate the frozen butter using a box grater, or cut up into small small pea size pieces. Add the butter to the bowl with dry mix and the mix using your hands or a fork.
Pour the 1/2 cup of the ice cold water and lightly beaten egg water into the bowl and use a fork to stir until the dough comes together. Mix in the dark chocolate chips.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly greased surface. Pat the dough into an even thickness 7-inch circle. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
Remove chilled dough and cut circle into 8 equal sized wedges. Place wedges on lined baking pan. Brush tops with heavy cream. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of granulated erythritol on top. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown.
Cool completely before icing. For icing, mix 2-3 tbsp heavy cream with 1 cup of powdered erythritol until desired consistency. Place in a small plastic bag and cut off one corner of the bag. Squeeze in a zig zag motion over the completely cooled scones
