Ingredients

2 cups flour
7 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ginger
1/4 teaspoon cloves
6 tablespoons butter cold and cut into cubes
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
3 tablespoons cream
1 large egg

Vanilla Icing

1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons milk

Spiced Icing

1 1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ginger
pinch cloves
2 tablespoons milk

Instructions

Combine the flour, sugar, and spices in a large bowl. Add the cold butter that has been cut into cubes. With a pastry cutter, fork, or two knives cut the butter until the mixture has formed crumbs and there are no large pieces of butter.
Combine the pumpkin, cream, and egg and mix together. Add to the flour mixture. Mix until all dry ingredients are moistened; form into a ball.
Sprinkle the work surface with flour. Place the dough on the floured surface and knead 5 to 7 times. Pat the dough into a 4-inch wide by a 12-inch long rectangle.
Cut the rectangle into 3 squares and then cut the squares into triangles. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 14 to 16 minutes. Remove from the oven and set on a cooling rack to cool.
Make the vanilla icing. Once the scones are completely cooled drizzle the vanilla icing over the scones. Once the vanilla icing is drizzled make the spiced icing. Drizzle the spiced icing over the top of vanilla icing.

Notes

Use butter instead of margarine for a richer flavor scone.
Use cold butter and egg for scones.
Scones are best eaten on the day that they are made, but if there are leftovers store in an airtight container.
If you want the scones to last even longer they can be frozen for up to a month.
