Notes

- Coconut cream and cream of coconut are NOT the same thing. Make sure you have cream of coconut before making this recipe.
- Mix the dough just until blended, not anymore!
- You can cut the scones onto any shape you like, but keep in mind, baking times may vary.
- Adjust the amount of coconut milk in the icing to your desired consistency.
- These do NOT reheat well. They are best served fresh or at room temperature
