Ingredients
12 servings
- •1.75 cups all-purpose flour
- •0.33333334326744 cup white sugar
- •2 teaspoons baking powder
- •0.5 teaspoon salt
- •5 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- •0.5 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
- •3 tablespoons orange juice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. With a pastry blender or a large fork, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the chocolate chips. Mix in the orange juice to form a dough.
- Turn out the dough on a floured surface. Pat or roll into a 9 inch circle about 1/2 inch thick. With a 2 1/2 inch fluted biscuit cutter, cut out 12 scones, pushing the dough scraps together for the last few, if necessary. Transfer the scones to the baking sheet.
- Bake in preheated oven until golden brown, about 12 minutes. Move to wire racks to cool.
