To make the glaze, whisk together the 2 cups of powdered sugar and milk until well combined.

Step 9

Remove 1/4 cup of the glaze and spoon the rest over the top of the scones.

Step 10

Add the cinnamon to the reserved glaze along with 2 tablespoons of powder sugar to thicken the glaze.

Step 11

Drizzle the cinnamon glaze over the top of the scones by letting it drip off a spoon over the scones.
