Vegan Mocha Scones

I had been wanting to bake some scones for a while and decided it was time to give it a try! I opted for a coffee mocha version (my favorite drink of the moment!). I thought I might as well make this one a vegan – dairy free version for all of you out there being in this mindset and having a sweet tooth.
