Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk well to blend.
- Add the cold butter to the dry ingredients and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: heavy cream, orange juice concentrate, Grand Marnier, and orange zest.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined.
- Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead gently five times to form a ball. Flatten into a circle about ¾-inch thick.
- Cut the dough into an ‘X’ shape and then into a ‘+’ sign to create 8 triangular scones.
- Transfer the cut scones to the lined baking sheet and bake for 15-17 minutes until golden brown.
- Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes.
- For the glaze, whisk together powdered sugar, orange juice concentrate, heavy cream, and orange zest in a small bowl.
- Dip the tops of each scone into the glaze or spoon it over them, and allow the glaze to set before serving.

Notes
Ensure cold ingredients for flaky texture and avoid overmixing the dough to maintain lightness in the scones.
