Spiced Pumpkin Scones Recipe

Spiced Pumpkin Scones Recipe was pinched from <a href="http://www.inspiredtaste.net/16810/spiced-pumpkin-scones-recipe/" target="_blank">www.inspiredtaste.net.</a>

"The inspiration for this pumpkin scones recipe was a popular treat from Starbucks! The ingredient list for these pumpkin scones is a little longer than you usually see on Inspired Taste. We really wanted these scones to be heavily spiced, which means we used lots of cinnamon, ginger, ground cloves and nutmeg both in the scones themselves as well as in a spiced glaze that we drizzle over the cooled scones.If you wanted to simplify this recipe a bit, the scones are delightful without both of the glazes – not too sweet and perfect warm with a little butter. One more thing, we call for molasses in this recipe – we felt it gave a nice backbone/foundation to the scones. If you do not have it on hand and prefer not to buy a whole bottle just for one tablespoon, the scones are delicious without it...."
