Frosted Chocolate Scone-Bits (Yes, ANOTHER scone!)

Mocha Almond Scone, and came up with this little chocolate delight! I used icing on these ones, with a fancy little design, and they tasted similar to an old-fashioned chocolate glazed donut (but not deep fried!) This is probably why I liked these ones so much. This is a smaller recipe, and I made a batch of about 12-15 that were the size of timbits. 

Frosted Chocolate Scone-Bits 

Ingredients:  

Method: 

Pre heat oven to 400
Mix all dry ingredients. Add butter and mix until crumbly.
Add wet ingredients and mix well.
On floured surface with floured hands, knead about 5 minutes adding flour as necessary
Use a cookie cutter or make balls of dough and place onto a floured cookie sheet.
Bake for 18-20 mins, until lightly cracked tops and are just barely firm when tapped.
Allow to cool completely before adding icing.

Icing Ingredients: 

1/2 cup icing sugar
2 tsp cocoa powder
1 tbsp milk
1/2 tap vanilla

Method: 

Mix icing sugar, milk and vanilla in bowl. Split mixture into two separate bowls. In one bowl, add the cocoa powder and mix until blended. When scones are cool, apply a thin layer of the chocolate icing to each scone. Allow to cool, then drizzle each scone with a small amount of the while icing, making designs as you go along.
