Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and fine salt.
  3. Add cold, cubed butter to the dry mixture and cut until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together heavy cream, orange juice concentrate, Grand Marnier, and fresh orange zest.
  5. Gently combine the wet and dry ingredients, stirring just until moistened.
  6. Knead the dough lightly on a floured surface and flatten it to about ¾-inch thick.
  7. Cut the dough into triangular shapes and transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
  8. Bake for 15-17 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  9. Allow scones to cool on a wire rack for about 10 minutes.
  10. Whisk together powdered sugar, additional heavy cream, and splash of orange juice to prepare the glaze.
  11. Drizzle the glaze over warm scones and let set before serving.
