To make Gingersnap Scones, you will need the following ingredients:

- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
- 1/2 cup molasses
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 egg

This recipe makes 8 scones.
To start, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ginger, and cinnamon. Cut in the butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the molasses, milk, and egg. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently until it comes together.
Shape the dough into a circle about 1 inch thick and cut it into 8 wedges. Place the scones on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown. Let the scones cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
These Gingersnap Scones are a perfect combination of sweet and spicy. They have a crispy exterior and a soft, tender interior. The molasses gives them a rich, caramel-like flavor that pairs perfectly with a cup of coffee or tea.
