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.

Time 55m

Yield 8 scones

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 1/2 cups baking mix, such as Bisquick, plus more for dusting
1/4 cup brown sugar
4 tablespoons salted butter, diced and chilled
2 large eggs, beaten
1/4 cup buttermilk
Splash vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
1/2 cup milk
Splash vanilla extract
3 cups sifted powdered sugar
Pinch kosher salt
1/4 cup mini chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
  • Mix together the baking mix and brown sugar in a large bowl. Cut the butter into the baking mix until fine crumbs form. Mix together the eggs, buttermilk and vanilla in a small pitcher. While mixing with a fork, slowly add the wet mix to the dry until just combined. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Form into a 3/4-inch-thick rectangle, then into 4 equal squares. Cut each square in half, creating 8 triangles. Transfer the triangles to the baking sheet and bake until lightly browned, about 18 minutes. Allow them to cool slightly.
  • For the icing: While the scones cool, mix together the milk, vanilla, powdered sugar and salt in a bowl until smooth.
  • Drizzle the icing over the cooled scones, then sprinkle with the mini chocolate chips. Allow the icing to set slightly before eating.

Time 22m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups Original Bisquick™ mix
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/3 cup whipping (heavy) cream
3 tablespoons sugar
1 egg

  • Pat into 8-inch circle on cookie sheet (if dough is sticky, dip fingers in Bisquick mix). Brush circle with additional whipping cream; sprinkle with additional sugar.
  • Dip a knife in flour before cutting the scones to prevent the dough from sticking to the knife. Cut dough into 8 equal wedges, cutting into, but not through, the dough. This allows the wedges to bake as one large scone; they'll be moister than scones baked separately. Bake until golden brown.
  • Bake about 12 minutes or until golden brown; carefully separate. Serve warm.
