Oatmeal Raspberry Chocolate Chip Scones recipe

Scones are not something I have very often. If I am going to splurge on breakfast calories, a donut or muffin will usually win out. Even when I am not the one doing the baking, a scone is rarely my first choice at a bakery.
As you know, I have already made both donuts and muffins recently, so it was time for a change.

The first scones I ever made were blueberry scones (recipe to come another time). They turned out great, but took a lot of work. These were much, much easier than my first experience. I had two raspberry scone recipes saved and couldn’t decide which I would make with my fresh berries.

Oatmeal Raspberry Scones? Or Raspberry Chocolate Scones? Tough decision!
Why not do both!?
That’s exactly what I did. I basically followed the recipe for the oatmeal scones and added chocolate chips into the dough at the end. Problem solved.

These are best eaten warm out of the oven and topped with butter. Maybe even a hot cup of coffee along side? Mmmmm! I think I’ll have another.
