Directions: |
Directions:Preheat oven to 395ºF. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Whisk together dry ingredients in a large bowl. Cut in butter and coconut oil. Whisk together egg, milk, yogurt, and vanilla in separate bowl then pour into a well in the dry ingredient mixture. Mix with a fork just until no clumps of flour are left, adding in the grated chocolate near the end. Do not overmix. Scoop batter into mounds a few inches apart on prepared pans. Bake until edges are just barely starting to brown and tops spring back when gently pressed, about 18 minutes (if making large scones). Allow to cool slightly before topping with German chocolate mixture. |

Directions:In a saucepan, add both sugars, butter, evaporated milk, and egg yolks. Whisk over medium heat until mixture comes to a boil. Continue cooking and whisking until mixture thickens over medium-high heat, about 3 - 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in pecans, coconut, and vanilla. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. The filling may need to be reheated slightly to make it easier to scoop onto scones.
Finish by drizzling scones with 1/3 c semi-sweet chocolate melted with 1 1/2 tsp coconut oil. |
