How to cook deliciously - Date and Chocolate Chip Whole Wheat Scones

1. Stage

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.

2. Stage

Sift together wheat and all-purpose flours, baking powder, salt, sugar and cinnamon into a large bowl. Rub butter into dry ingredients until it resembles fine breadcrumbs. Stir in dates and chocolate chips. Mix in the milk, just until blended and form dough into a ball.
