- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 6 tablespoon butter unsalted, cut into cubes and chilled
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup pecans chopped
- 1/2 cup nutella
Preheat oven to 375 F degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl mix together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder and salt. Using a pastry blender cut in the butter until your mixture resembles pea sized crumbles.
In a small bowl mix together the heavy cream and the egg. To it add the nutella and whisk it in. Pour the cream mixture into the dry ingredients and using a fork start to work the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until the dough comes together. Add in the pecans and knead it a few times until the dough stays together.
Shape the dough into a disk that's about an inch in thickness and about 8 to 10 inches in diameter. Cut the dough into 8 equal wedges just like you would cut a pizza.
Place the wedges onto the lined baking sheet and bake for about 20 minutes. Let cool.
Drizzle the top of the scones with additional nutella if preferred.
