Directions

  1. Make the scones: Whisk the heavy cream, honey, egg and vanilla in a bowl. Pulse the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt in a food processor. Add the butter, grapefruit zest and rosemary; pulse until the butter is in pea-size bits. Add the heavy cream mixture; pulse until shaggy.
  2. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. Pat into a 4-by-8-inch rectangle; cut into 8 squares. Arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate 1 hour.
  3. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Brush the scones with heavy cream and bake until golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool.
  4. Make the glaze: Whisk the confectioners’ sugar in a bowl with 1/2 teaspoon grapefruit zest, 1 tablespoon grapefruit juice, the honey and melted butter; thin with more juice as needed. Spread the glaze on the scones and top with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon zest.
