1. 1Preheat the oven to 400F degress. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. 2In a bowl whisk together the flour, the sugar, the baking powder, the baking soda and the salt.
3. 3Cut in the ricotta and butter and lightly work with your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse sand. Gently stir in the buttermilk, the vanilla extract and the chocolate chips.
4. 4Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Knead gently for 1 2 minutes, the dough should hold together but be a bit crumbly.
5. 5Place the dough on the prepared baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Pat the dough into a 3/4-inch-thick circle.
6. 6Cut the dough into 4 wedges without separating them. Use a pastry brush to brush the surface of the dough with milk and then sprinkle with brown sugar.
7. 7Bake for about 15 minutes or until lightly browned.
8. 8Let them cool on a cooling rack.
