Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375F. Spray a round baking sheet (I use a pizza sheet) with cooking spray.
Combine flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Using a pastry blender or a sturdy whisk, cut the butter into the mixture until it resembles a coarse meal. Fold in the chocolate chips. Add buttermilk, sugar, vanilla, and egg, and stir until moist.
Place dough on a floured surface and knead three or four times with floured hands (the dough will be sticky). Form the dough into a 9-12″ circle, depending how thin you like your scones.
Brush the egg white over the top and sprinkle with extra sugar. Using a knife, cut into 12 equally sized pieces (this makes them much easier to separate after baking).
Bake until golden, about 13-20 minutes, depending on your over. Serve warm.
