Of course not just a tasty snack at Easter, these chocolate fudge scones recipe are delicious all year round! And the nice thing about them is that they are made in this way and you usually already have everything at home. In any case, it is a good idea to keep your pantry up to date with these basic products. Then you can always conjure up something delicious when you get visitors. Scones are of course known from England where they are eaten with tea with clotted cream and jam. With this scones recipe I omitted the jam because I thought they were sweet enough with the chocolate and whipped cream! I used Johnny Doodle bars in this recipe. It contains all the pieces of fudge you need. If this bar is not available at your supermarket, you can chop cubes of fudge small and add them. Let's make them fast!
Chocolate fudge scones recipe
The scone is a type of quick bread that originated in Scotland. Did you know? It is made from wheat or oat flour with baking powder as a leavening agent and baked on a baking tray. It is often lightly sweetened and sometimes brushed with egg yolk. The scone is an important part of the cream tea, a typical British tradition where you drink tea with all kinds of small snacks, such as scones with jam and clotted cream. In the Netherlands we know this tradition a little less, although nowadays you can also have a nice high tea. Making the scones is therefore very easy and you prefer to eat them the same day. Well, I must confess that I had kept a number of scones in a Tupperware box before photography and they were still very tasty the next day.
Scones come in different shapes and flavors. For example, you can make them savory with potato or soda, as the Scots do. Or you can sweeten them with raisins, chocolate or cranberries. You can also vary them with the jam or cream you serve with it. There is even a debate in England about what goes better with a scone: jam or cream? Whichever you choose, scones are a delicious treat that should not be missed at a cozy tea party.
Here you will find the complete recipe with all the ingredients you need. I hope you have fun preparing the dish below.

Nice and easy: click on the logo of your favorite supermarket to add the ingredients.
And this is how you make it:
- The amount of ingredients above is for one slice of dough. I made these quantities twice. I did add cocoa to one, but not the other.
- Preheat your oven to 220 degrees.
- Take your mixing bowl and add the flour, sugar, salt, cocoa powder, and the cold butter cubes.
- Knead the butter into the dough with your fingers to create a slightly grainy dough. Add the milk and a few cubes of finely chopped chocolate bar and mix with a fork until a dough forms.
- Remove the dough from the bowl and knead briefly, then form a flat circle about an inch or two thick. Cut into 8 parts with a knife. Sprinkle some finely chopped chocolate on top.
- Bake on a baking tray lined with baking paper in the oven for 13-14 minutes.
- Let them cool down before eating them…
- Delicious bites!
