Ingredients

1. 2 cups all-purpose flour
2. 1 tablespoon baking powder
3. 1 tablespoonsugar
4. 3⁄4 teaspoon kosher salt
5. 1⁄2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
6. 1⁄2 cup semisweet chocolate morsels
7. 1 cup whole buttermilk, divided
8. Whipping Cream Glaze (recipe follows)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 425°.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Using a pastry blender or 2 forks, cut in cold butter until mixture is crumbly. Add chocolate morsels, tossing until combined. Gradually add 3⁄4 cup buttermilk, stirring until dry ingredients are moistened. Add remaining 1⁄4 cup buttermilk, if needed.
3. On a lightly floured surface, gently knead dough 4 or 5 times. Roll dough 3⁄4 inch thick. Fold dough in half; roll 3⁄4 inch thick. Using a 2 1⁄2-inch cutter dipped in flour, cut dough, rerolling scraps once. Place biscuits in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet, touching slightly.
4. Bake until lightly browned, about 17 minutes. Let cool in pan for 30 minutes. Drizzle with Whipping Cream Glaze.
