Chocolate Chip Scones

This scone recipe is a standard second breakfast for us. That's right, we said second breakfast. If you're one of those sad people who only eats one breakfast each day, we truly feel sorry for you. Second breakfast with a cup of coffee is truly one of the best parts of Fat Friday, or any day for that matter.
