3. **Cut in the Butter**: Add the cold butter to the dry ingredients and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

4. **Combine Wet Ingredients**: In a separate bowl, mix the heavy cream, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and egg until well combined.

5. **Combine Mixtures**: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

6. **Shape the Scones**: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it comes together. Pat it into a circle about 1-inch thick. Cut into wedges or use a biscuit cutter for round scones.

7. **Bake**: Place the scones on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.

8. **Make the Glaze (optional)**: While the scones are baking, whisk together powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth. Adjust the consistency with more lemon juice or powdered sugar as needed.

9. **Cool and Glaze**: Let the scones cool for a few minutes, then drizzle with the glaze and sprinkle with extra lemon zest, if desired.

10. **Serve**: Enjoy warm or at room temperature!

These lemon cream scones are sure to be a hit! Enjoy!
