Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ⅓ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • ½ cup eggnog
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon rum extract
  • 1 tablespoon eggnog
  • ⅓ cup powdered sugar
Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 F.
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  3. Add the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg to a food processor and pulse together until combined.
  4. Add the cubed butter to the food processor and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse sand.
  5. In a medium bowl whisk together the eggnog, egg, and rum extract.
  6. Add the flour mixture to a large bowl, then stir in the eggnog mixture until a dough forms.
  7. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Use floured hands to form the dough into a 7-inch disc.
  8. Cut the dough into 8 equal wedges.
  9. Place the scones on the prepared baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the freezer for 5 minutes to chill the scones.
  10. Bake the scones in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, until they are golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool completely.
  11. In a small bowl whisk together the powdered sugar and eggnog until smooth.
  12. Drizzle the glaze over the scones.
  13. Let the glaze set for about 10 minutes, then serve.
