Chocolate Chunk Scones

Inspired by NEO: The World Ends With You
Servings: 8

Ingredients

  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • cup sugar
  • ¼ cup light brown sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter cubed and frozen
  • 1 cup whole milk + extra for brushing
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 12 oz chocolate bars cut into chunks
  • turbinado sugar for topping

Instructions

  • Preheat an oven to 375°F. Combine the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and light brown sugar in a large bowl. Combine the butter with the flour until it resembles a coarse meal.
  • Add 10 ounces of the chocolate chunks and toss to combine. Combine the milk and vanilla extract in a small bowl. Add to the large bowl with the flour and mix together until just combined (do not overwork).
  • Transfer the dough onto the countertop and form into an 8 inch wide disc. Cut into 8 portions, like a pizza. Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper and non-stick spray.
  • Place the scones on the baking sheet. Top each of the scones with the extra chocolate chunks and press in. Brush the top of the scones with milk and sprinkle with turbinado sugar. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown.
