    Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
    2               cups  all-purpose flour
       1/4           cup  granulated sugar
    1         tablespoon  baking powder
       1/2      teaspoon  kosher salt
    6        tablespoons  cold unsalted butter -- cut into small pieces
    1 1/4           cups  semisweet chocolate chips
       3/4           cup  sour cream
    1              large  egg
    1           teaspoon  pure vanilla extract

Heat oven to 425F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and 
salt. Add the butter and, using a pastry blender or two knives, cut 
it in until the mixture forms small crumbs. Add the chocolate chips 
and toss to combine. Make a well in the center of the mixture.

In a bowl, whisk together the sour cream, egg, and vanilla. Add to 
the flour mixture and, using a fork, gently stir until incorporated 
(do not overmix). Bring the dough together into a ball.

On a lightly floured surface, shape the dough into an 8" round (about 
1" thick). Cut into 8 wedges, separate, and transfer to the prepared 
baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes.
