Super Easy Chocolate Scones
These chocolate scones couldn't be easier or quicker to make with just a few simple ingredients and they taste amazing.
Ingredients
- 225 g self-raising flour Baking flour in USA
- 50 g unsalted butter chilled and chopped
- pinch salt
- 1 tbsp caster sugar super fine sugar
- 150 ml milk
- 50 g chocolate chips or broken up chocolate bar
Instructions
- Rub the butter and flour together with a pinch of salt till it resembles breadcrumbs
- Add the sugar, milk and chocolate chips and stir through till it forms a dough and squish it all together
- Roll out to 2-3cm thick and cut out your scones. I used a 5.5cm cutter to make 12 mini scones, roll thicker and use bigger cutter for less but larger scones
- Place on a lined baking tray and brush with a little milk and bake for approx 12-15 minutes till golden then cool on a wire rack
Notes
Scones are always best on the day they are made but will keep in an airtight container for a couple of days, gently warm in oven to liven them up a bit. They freeze well for up to 4 months.
