Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/2 cups (315g) all-purpose flour, plus more for work surface and kneading
4 tbsp granulated sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
½ cup (114g) cold unsalted butter, cubed
⅔ cup (167ml) cold buttermilk, plus more for brushing top of scones
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla
2-3 tbsp coarse sugar for sprinking (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
  • Work in the butter with a pastry cutter or fork until it resembles coarse meal with a few larger pieces remaining. Toss in the chocolate chips. Set aside.
  • In a measuring cup, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, and vanilla extract.
  • Pour the wet ingredients over the dry mixture. Gently stir with a rubber spatula until JUST combined and all appears to be moistened.
  • Scrape the dough onto a floured work surface. With floured hands, gently and quickly knead the dough into a ball. It doesn't have to be smooth. Rough and shaggy is good.
  • Pat into a 6″ circle and cut into 8 or 10 wedges and place 2″ apart onto a parchment paper or silicone mat lined baking sheet. Chill uncovered in the fridge for 20 minutes while you preheat your oven to 400F.
  • Brush the tops of the scones with more buttermilk and sprinkle with coarse sugar if using.
  • Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown.

Categories     Chocolate     Breakfast     Brunch     Bake     Winter     Bon Appétit     Kidney Friendly     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Makes 6 scones

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) chilled unsalted butter, diced
1 teaspoon (packed) grated lemon peel
3/4 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
3/4 cup chilled buttermilk
1 large egg yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Milk (for glaze)

Steps:

  • Butter and flour baking sheet. Sift 2 cups flour, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt into large bowl. Add butter and lemon peel; rub in with fingertips until butter is reduced to size of rice grains. Mix in chocolate chips. Whisk buttermilk, egg yolk and vanilla in small bowl to blend. Add buttermilk mixture to dry ingredients; mix until dough comes together in moist clumps. Gather dough into ball. Press dough out on lightly floured surface to 8-inch round; cut round into 6 wedges. Transfer wedges to prepared baking sheet, spacing 1 inch apart. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
  • Preheat oven to 400°. Brush scones lightly with milk; sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons sugar. Bake until scones are crusty on top and tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate chips for the best flavor. Semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips work well.
  • Don't overwork the dough. Overworking will make the scones tough.
  • Use cold butter. Cold butter will help to create flaky layers in the scones.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling will help the scones to hold their shape better.
  • Bake the scones until they are golden brown. Over baking will make the scones dry.
  • Serve the scones warm with your favorite toppings, such as butter, jam, or cream.
