For best results, use very cold butter. You can even chill the flour mixture and the dates and chocolate chips before combining. Don't overmix the dough, or the scones will be tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined. For a richer flavor, try using dark chocolate chips or adding a splash of vanilla extract to the milk. These scones are best enjoyed fresh, but they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
