My mom has been making these scones for breakfast every Christmas morning since I was a kid! Now its very special that I can pass this recipe off to anyone who needs an easy chocolate chip scone fix ❤️

A traditional scone uses heavy cream and eggs to get a sturdy, crumbly, scone.  This recipe uses buttermilk instead making them extra fluffy and flaky. You will not want to stop eating these chocolate chip sones.

Ingredients Needed to Make Chocolate Chip Scones:

• all purpose flour
• granulated sugar
• baking powder
• baking soda
• buttermilk
• unsalted butter
• semi sweet chocolate chips
