- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- ¼ cup almond milk

- Mix the Greek yogurt mixture and chocolate chips into the flour until just combined.
- Flour a clean surface, split the scone batter in two dough balls on the floured surface.
- Squish and mold into two round discs, using a pizza cutter cut each disk into 8 slices, just like you are cutting a pizza or a pie.
