Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine flour, chocolate protein powder, unflavored protein powder, coconut flour, cocoa powder, sweetener and baking powder.
Add yogurt and red food coloring and pull together with spoon/spatula to make dough crumbles.
Use hands to bring together.
Knead the ONLY LITTLE till it comes together. Dough should be slightly wet, not ‘knead-able’.
DO NOT OVER-KNEAD or scones will be tough and not crumbly.
Transfer to parchment lined baking sheet and shape (gently) into circle about ¾-1” thick.
Use pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut into 6 scones.
Space out cut scones.
Place in fridge for about 10-15 mins.
Bake for 20 minutes until outsides are crusty and still soft to touch. Toothpick inserted into center should come out clean.
Let cool.
Chocolate Drizzle:
Place chocolate chips and coconut oil in a large microwave safe bowl and microwave about 45 seconds, stirring halfway, until completely melted.
Allow to cool slightly then drizzle on scones.
