Chocolate Chip Scones

This recipe was one of the first recipes I created and it is still one of my favorite recipes today. I have a love hate relationship with scones. The first few scones I ever tried were so dry and they were gross. I tried making them and they were okay. It took me awhile to get my recipe to where it is. My chocolate chip scones have always been a favorite from customers.

I have switched a few things like freezing the butter and grate it instead of cubing the butter and cutting it in. I found by freezing the butter and grating the butter, it helps to keep the scones from being dry. I also don’t roll out my scones, I just use a cookie scoop and scoop them out. They taste the same and they are a lot easier to make that way too.

I hope you enjoy these scones as much as we do.
