Cinnamon Sugar Scones – Soft buttery scones made with cinnamon chips and real cinnamon and topped with a light sugar coating. Perfectly flaky and great with morning coffee or tea for breakfast.
Hello Christmas season. I’m in love already with the twinkling lights, the cozy fire and the Christmas sights every where. Hello to the mittens and warm wooly hats.
And hello to warm drinks such as coffee and hot chocolate. They truly make our hearts happy and our smiles broaden. Precious memories like this are captured to remember for years to come.
Scones and a warm cup of coffee is the perfect combo. And this Starbucks Cinnamon Dolce definitely sparked a desire for all things cinnamon. I rolled up my sleeves and got to work. Scones are incredibly easy to make.
Starbucks coffee and breakfast scones are a match made in heaven!
