Scatter cold butter evenly over dry ingredients and pulse until mixture resembles coarse cornmeal, twelve to fourteen 1-second pulses. Transfer mixture to medium bowl; stir in cooled oats, raisins and chips. Using rubber spatula, fold in liquid ingredients until large clumps form. Mix dough by hand in bowl until dough form a cohesive mass.
4. Dust work surface with half of reserved oats, turn dough out onto work surface, and dust top with remaining oats. Gently pat into 7-inch circle about 1 inch thick. Using bench scraper or knife, cut dough into 8 wedges and set on parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Brush surfaces with reserved egg mixture and sprinkle with 1 Tbs. sugar. Bake until golden brown, 10-15 minutes; cool scones on baking sheet on wire rack for 5 minutes, then remove to cooling rack and cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
