Elevate plain scones with a festive twist for a delightful holiday indulgence.
Ingredients:
  • 65g (3/4 cup) desiccated coconut, plus extra, to decorate
  • 35g (1/3 cup) cocoa powder, sifted
  • 250ml (1 cup) coconut milk, warmed
  • 450g (3 cups) self-raising flour
  • 24.00 gm pure icing sugar
  • 0.60 gm salt
  • 160ml (2/3 cup) milk
  • 50g (1/4 cup) glacé cherries, chopped
  • 6 (about 25g) pink and white marshmallows, chopped, plus extra, to decorate
  • 100g white chocolate, melted
  • 40g (1/4 cup) roasted unsalted peanuts, chopped
Instructions:
  • Mix the coconut, cocoa, and coconut milk in a small bowl and let it sit for 20 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly.
  • 1. Preheat your oven to 220C (200C fan forced) and prepare a baking tray by greasing it and lining it with baking paper. 2. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, icing sugar, and salt. 3. Add in the coconut mixture, milk, cherries, and marshmallows, then gently stir with a flat-bladed knife until just combined.
  • Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Quickly knead until smooth and shape it into a 3cm-thick round. Use a 5cm-diameter pastry cookie cutter dusted in flour to cut out around 14 rounds from the dough, reusing any scraps if needed.
  • Arrange the dough rounds closely together on the prepared tray. Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until they are beautifully puffed up and fully cooked.
  • Drizzle scones with chocolate and sprinkle with extra peanuts, marshmallows, and coconut. Serve warm.
