📝 Preparation Steps
1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and orange zest.
2
Grate the frozen butter using a box grater. Add it to the dry mixture and toss until it resembles coarse crumbs. Place the bowl in the freezer while you prep the wet ingredients.
3
In a small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, egg, and vanilla extract.

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. With floured hands, shape it into a rough ball. Don’t worry if it’s a little sticky. Press into an 8-inch circle and cut into 8 wedges.
6
Transfer the scones to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush the tops with heavy cream and sprinkle with coarse sugar. Chill the pan in the fridge for at least ⏱️ 15 minutes.

While the scones cool, whisk together the powdered sugar and orange juice to make the glaze.
