INGREDIENTS

  • Dry Ingredients

    • 🌾 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
    • 🍚 ⅓ cup white sugar
    • 2 teaspoons baking powder
    • 🧂 ½ teaspoon salt

  • Wet Ingredients

    • 🧈 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
    • 🍫 ½ cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
    • 🍊 3 tablespoons orange juice, or more if needed

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.

2

Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl. Cut in butter with a pastry blender or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in chocolate chips. Mix in orange juice to form a dough.

3

Turn out dough onto a floured surface. Pat or roll into a 9-inch circle about ½ inch thick. Use a 2½-inch fluted biscuit cutter to cut out 12 scones, re-using scraps for the last few if needed. Transfer the scones to the baking sheet.

4

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 12 minutes. Transfer to wire racks to cool.

💡 Ensure the butter is well chilled before mixing to achieve the flakiest texture.Use a light hand when combining the ingredients to avoid overmixing; this helps the scones stay tender.Experiment with adding zest from the orange for an extra burst of flavor.
