Ingredients List
- 2 cups flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tbsp sugar

Directions
Position a rack at the center of the oven and preheat oven to 400. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mix flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt together in a large bowl [or food processor]. Cut butter into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter, until butter is pea-sized [or pulse in the food processor]. Whisk together the heavy cream, eggs and vanilla. Pour over the flour mixture and mix until combined [you might have to use your hands and ‘knead’ the last bit of crumbs into the wet mixture]. Turn the mixture out onto the parchment lined baking sheet, and form into an 8-inch circle that is 1 inch thick. Cut circle into 8 even pieces, and brush tops with a little heavy cream. Sprinkle the tops with sugar. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the bottom of the scones are golden brown.When scones have cooled a bit, recut with a knife and serve with the grapefruit curd.
