Rosemary and Chocolate Scones

Ingredients:

• 2 cups of premium flour, plus more for dusting
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
• 6 tablespoons of granulated sugar
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 2 tbsp dry buttermilk
• 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp chopped fresh rosemary
• 2 tbsp. l. melted butter
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tbsp and 2 tbsp heavy cream
• 2 tbsp. l. brown sugar

Preparation:

1. Preheat oven to 210°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
   
   In a bowl, combine flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, dry buttermilk, and salt. Stir in rosemary and chocolate chips. In a separate bowl, combine melted butter, vanilla extract, and 1 cup of heavy cream. Pour the mixture into the flour bowl and whisk until smooth.
   
   Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth, about 1 minute.
2. Divide the dough into two parts and roll each into a round layer 1 - 2 cm thick. Spread the dough with 2 tbsp. cream and sprinkle with sugar.
   
   Cut each layer into 6 pieces and place on the prepared baking sheet. Place in the oven and bake until golden brown, 12-16 minutes. Remove the rosemary and chocolate scones from the oven and cool.
