Double Chocolate Sour Cream Scones - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 cup all-purpose flour
    1 cup whole wheat flour
    1/4 cup brown sugar
    3/4 teaspoon baking soda
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
    5 tablespoons butter, cut into small slices (must use butter and it must be cold)
    1 large egg, beaten lightly
    1 cup sour cream (can use light sour cream or plain yogurt)
    1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
    In a large bowl, combine the flours, sugar, baking soda, baking powder and cocoa. Mix well.
    Cut in the cold butter pieces with a pastry blender or two knifes until the butter is in tiny chunks the size of pennies.
    In another bowl beat egg lightly with a fork, add sour cream and mix well. Add wet mixture to middle of dry mixture.
    Add chocolate chips and mix until flour mix is just moistened and forms a ball. You may need to add 1-2 Tbsp milk if dough is too dry.
    Knead a few times and turn dough ball out onto prepared pan.
    Press into a flat circle that is 2\" thick.
    With a sharp knife, cut in four \"pie\" sections, then cut each section in half again.
    Bake in 400F oven for 15 minutes. Cool on pan.
