Step 1

Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a skillet with cooking spray. Set aside.

Step 2

Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Stir in the chocolate chips.

Step 3

Make Dough & Knead: In a smaller bowl whisk together the buttermilk, eggs and butter. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and combine with a wooden spoon. Dust your hands with a little bit of flour and knead the dough, either in the bowl if it's large enough, or over your floured work surface. Knead it gently just until you can form a rough ball. Do not over knead the dough.

Step 4

Score: Place the dough in the skillet and score the top in an X shape or a couple lines about an inch in depth, to help cook the center.

Step 5

Bake: Bake for 45 minutes to an hour.
