Total: 30 minutes minutes
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- 1.5 tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp baking soda
- ½ cup salted butter cold and cut into small cubes
- ½ cup buttermilk milk or regular milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda in a large bowl.
Add the cold butter and cut it in with a pastry cutter or fingertips until small crumbs form.
Add the milk and vanilla. Gently bring the mixture together into a dough without overmixing.
Fold the chocolate chips gently into the dough.
Form the dough into an 8-inch circle on the baking sheet, cut it into eight triangles, and spread them 2 inches apart.
Bake for 15–18 minutes, until the edges are golden. Transfer to a rack and cool completely.
