Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture, and using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles fine crumbs.
Stir in the granulated erythritol until evenly distributed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond milk, egg, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until the dough begins to come together. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the sugar-free dark chocolate chips until they are evenly incorporated.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and pat it gently into a circle about 1 inch thick.
Cut the dough into 8 wedges and transfer them to the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown on top.
Allow the scones to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
