1-Getting ready to bake Cookies N Cream Scones is all about following a few straightforward steps that lead to great results. Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper this sets the stage for even baking. In a large bowl, mix the dry ingredients: 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon baking powder, and a pinch of salt, then add the cold butter cut into pieces until it forms pea-sized crumbs.

2-Next, in a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: 3/4 cup buttermilk, 1 egg, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Stir the quartered cream-filled chocolate cookies into the dry mixture for even distribution. Fold in the wet ingredients gently to form a dough ball, being careful not to overmix.

3-Now, press the dough into a 9-inch circle on your prepared baking sheet and sprinkle with extra sugar if you want that extra crunch. Bake for about 25 minutes until the scones are cooked through, then cut the baked circle into 8 to 10 wedges. This process, which takes around 40 to 45 minutes total, results in scones that are light and full of flavor, ideal for travelers or working professionals on the go.
