Maple-Bacon Scones

I tried these for the first time the other day and my family devoured them!

 

Ingredients:

1 recipe of Scones

5 cups of powdered sugar, sifted

1/2 Cup milk

2 Tablespoons of maple extract or maple flavoring (we had our family mail us this)

1/4 teaspoon salt

8 thin slices of bacon, fried crisp and chopped

 

 

Instructions:

 

1.)  Prepare the scones and allow them to cool completely.

2.)  Make the maple glaze:  Combine the powdered sugar, milk, maple extract and salt.

3.)  Stir the mixture until it is smooth.

4.)  Drizzle 1 to 2 Tablespoons of maple glace all over the cooled scones.  Then, before the glaze sets, sprinkle the tops with the chopped bacon.
