These scones were easy to make and they turned out great! I used dark chocolate chips and they added a rich flavor to the scones. I will definitely be making these again.

These scones were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would use less sugar next time. Otherwise, they were very flavorful and the chocolate chips were a nice touch.

These scones were a bit dry for my taste. I think I would add a little bit more milk next time. Otherwise, they were very flavorful and the chocolate chips were a nice touch.
