Tender, rich chocolate chip scones made with easy baking ingredients, chocolate chips, and orange juice for a morning treat or afternoon tea delight!
Step1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
Step2
Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl. Cut in butter with a pastry blender or a large fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in chocolate chips. Mix in orange juice to form a dough.
Step3
Turn out dough on a floured surface. Pat or roll into a 9-inch circle about 1/2 inch thick. With a 2 ½-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.
Step4
Bake in preheated oven until golden brown, about 12 minutes. Move to wire racks to cool.
