3 cups flour
1/3 cup light brown sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 eggs
3/4 cup buttermilk
1 cup milk chocolate chips
EGG WASH:
1 egg beaten w/pinch of salt
Recipe
Place oven rack in middle of oven and preheat oven to 450F
degrees. Combine dry ingredients in a bowl. Cut the butter
into 12 pieces and rub it evenly into the dry ingredients
until the mixture has the appearance of fine cornmeal.
Add chocolate chips. Whisk the eggs and milk together and stir
into the flour and butter mixture with a fork to form a smooth
dough. Divide dough into 3 pieces and form each into a 5-inch
disk. Using a sharp, floured knife, quarter each disk into 4
wedges (pie slice shape). Place the wedges wide apart on a
prepared baking pan. Apply egg wash evening over wedges, allow
wash to dry several minutes, then apply again.
Bake scones for 10 to 15 minutes or until firm but not dry. Be
careful not to let them get too brown.
