Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.

Step 3

Grate the frozen butter and add to dry mixture. Use a fork or pastry blender to cut in the butter.

Step 4

In a separate bowl whisk together yogurt, cream, egg, and vanilla until well blended.

Step 5

Add to the dry mixture along with craisins (or other add-ins) and use a rubber spatula to fold the ingredients in until it starts to come together in large clumps.

Step 6

Gently knead mixture by hand (in the mixing bowl) just a few times until it comes together in a ball. Try not to handle the dough too much.

Step 7

Dust a clean surface with a little flour and drop dough on top. Gently pat and shape into an 8-inch circle. Cut into 8 wedges then transfer to a parchment lined baking sheet.

Step 8

Bake in preheated oven until golden, about 16 - 18 minutes.

Step 9

Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes before drizzling the glaze on top. These are best served the day they are prepared.

Step 10

Add powdered sugar to a mixing bowl with 1 Tbsp milk and stir until smooth. Add additional milk, if needed. Drizzle over scones.
