Birthday Cake Scones

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 400℉ and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and pudding mix. Using a pastry cutter, cut in the butter until the pieces are about the size of peas. Stir in the chopped white chocolate and sprinkles.
3
In another small bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract. Add to the flour/butter mixture and stir until the dough starts to come together.
4
Turn onto the counter and use your hands to gently knead the dough and form it into 3 disks each around 3 inches in diameter. Cut each disk into quarters and place on the prepared baking sheet, leaving room between each scone for them to cool.
5
Bake the scones in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and top with additional white chocolate if desired. Let the scones cool on the baking sheet for at least 10 minutes before serving.

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Keep Butter Freezing Cold ❄️
    Cube your cold salted butter and freeze it for 15 minutes before mixing into the dough to create tender, flaky layers instead of dense scones.
  • Don't Overmix the Dough 🙌
    Mix just until the ingredients combine and small pea-sized butter pieces remain visible; overmixing develops gluten and creates tough, heavy scones.
  • Bloom the Pudding Mix 🎂
    Whisk the instant vanilla pudding mix with the egg and milk for 1-2 minutes before adding to dry ingredients to activate its thickening properties and maximize flavor distribution.
  • Fold in Sprinkles Last 🎨
    Add colored sprinkles and white chocolate chunks in the final fold to prevent them from crushing or bleeding color into the dough during mixing.
  • Chill Shaped Scones Before Baking ⏱️
    Refrigerate formed scones for 20-30 minutes before baking to help them rise evenly and maintain their shape with a tender, moist crumb.
