In a bowl, mix together your dry ingredients and sugar.
Add your grated butter (or use a pastry cutter to cut your butter) and mix until there are coated chunks.
Add the sourdough discard, heavy cream and mix together. The dough will be pretty crumbly, so transfer to a clean workspace and work it the rest of the way with your hands. Using your bench scraper, separate the dough into 3 equal pieces.
Roll one piece out into a small circle and add 9-10 tsp sized dollops of cookie dough over the surface. Layer the second piece of round scone dough directly on top of the first. Spread it out so the edges are touching and add more cookie dough dollops over the top. Do the same with the last piece of dough. Top it off with 10-12 dollops of cookie dough.
Using your bench scraper, divide the dough into 8 equal pieces and brush the top of each piece with heavy cream
Transfer the pieces to a parchment lined baking sheet and preheat your oven to 425 degrees.
While your oven is preheating, place your scones into the fridge or freezer to chill so the butter stays cold.
When the oven is ready, bake the scones for 20-22 minutes. Let cool slightly, and enjoy! :)
