By

Chocolate paired with orange is always good. These are very easy to make.

Ingredients

  • Scones:
  • 2 cups Flour
  • 3 tbsp Sugar
  • 3 tsp Baking Powder
  • 3 tbsp Orange Zest
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1 cup Dark Chocolate Pearls or Mini Chocolate Chips
  • 1-1/4 cups Heavy Cream

Preparation

Step 1

In a medium bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, orange zest, salt and chocolate chips.

Pour in heavy cream. Mix until just combined. This dough will be sticky. Place on a floured surface and divide into two mounds, about 3/4-inch high.

Cut into desired shapes. Place on parchment lined baking sheets.

Bake at 400 degrees for 9-11 minutes. Let cool about 10 minutes and drizzle with glaze.

Glaze:
1 cup Powdered Sugar
2-3 tablespoons Orange Juice
