Ingredients

  • 3 ½ cups flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 16 tablespoons butter cut into ½ inch cubes
  • 1 ¼ cups buttermilk
  • ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Glaze

  • ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 teaspoons light corn syrup
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions

  • Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar to a food processor and process to combine. Add cold butter and process until it resembles coarse meal with chunks of butter the size of peas.
  • Add buttermilk and mix just until the dough comes together. Turn out onto a lightly floured cutting board and roll out into a rectangle. Sprinkle chocolate chips on top and press them into the dough with a rolling pin.
  • Cut the dough into sections and stack them on top of each other, use a rolling pin to roll it into a rectangle and repeat 2 more times. Roll into a rectangle that is 1 ½ inches thick. Cut into 12 -15 biscuits using a 2 inch biscuit cutter. Cut straight down and don’t twist. Place biscuits on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper, freeze for 10 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 425º.
  • Remove from the freezer and bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.

Glaze

  • Combine the chocolate chips, butter and corn syrup in a small shallow bowl. Microwave on 50% power for about 2 minutes, stirring occasional. Whisk until smooth. Dip the tops of the biscuits into the chocolate glaze and let rest until the chocolate sets.

Notes

  • Store on the counter in an airtight container for 1-2 days, or freeze.
  • Once the biscuits have been cut you can freeze them for later. Once frozen on the pan, place in a ziplock bag until ready to use. Let them thaw on the counter for 15 minutes before baking.
  • When making biscuits, use cold butter and buttermilk.
