There’s nothing like the aroma of freshly baked scones filling your kitchen. These chocolate chip scones are one of my favorite treats to bake—crisp on the outside, soft and buttery on the inside, and loaded with just the right amount of chocolate chips.
Making scones from scratch is easier than you might think. With a few pantry staples—flour, butter, sugar, eggs, and chocolate chips—you can create a batch of delicious, golden-brown scones that pair perfectly with your morning coffee or afternoon tea.
If you’re new to baking scones, here are a few tips to get them just right:
- Use cold butter: This helps create that flaky texture.
- Don’t overwork the dough: Mix until just combined to keep them tender.
- Chill before baking: A quick chill in the fridge helps them hold their shape.
I love making these for a cozy weekend treat or as a thoughtful homemade gift. Give them a try, and let me know how they turn out!
