Scone Preparation:
Combine flour, oats, sugar, baking powder and salt. Make well in center of dry ingredients. Combine butter, milk and egg. Add egg mixture all at once to dry ingredients, stirring just until moistened. Stir in chocolate pieces, then divide the dough in half. On a greased baking sheet flatten each half of dough to a 6" round. Cut each circle into 6 wedges. Do not separate wedges. Bake in a 450° oven for about 12 minutes or until golden. Remove scones from baking sheet. Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Break scone circles apart into wedges and serve warm.
