Ingredients:

Serving

2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more fordusting
6 tbsp granulated sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
2 tbsp dry buttermilk powder (available in the baking aisle)
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp minced fresh rosemary (optional)
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup plus 2 tbsp heavy cream
2 tbsp coarse brown sugar

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Whisk the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, dry buttermilk and salt in a medium bowl. Add the rosemary and/or chocolate chips. In a small bowl, whisk the melted butter, vanilla and 1 cup cream. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead until smooth, about 1 minute.
Divide the dough into 2 balls; roll out each ball into a 1/2-to-3/4-inch-thick disk. Brush the tops of the disks with the remaining 2 tablespoons cream, then sprinkle with the coarse sugar. Cut each disk into 6 wedges. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and bake until golden brown, 12 to 16 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool.
