Editor\u2019s Note – We we\u2019re reminded by an observant reader that two ingredients were omitted from the recipe. \u00a0Add 1 teaspoon fresh grated orange rind and 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips before adding the egg\/milk mixture. \u00a0I am writing this from a small town in Peru with horrible WiFi. \u00a0I could not change the ingredients through our app. Will correct it when we get home next week. \u00a0We are doing fine and are sore from lots of manual labor😀.<\/p>\n

When I hosted a tea party<\/a> recently, I knew that scones needed to be on the menu.\u00a0 After all, it was a high tea served in the afternoon, and if there’s one thing I want at a sit-down tea, it’s a good scone.\u00a0 I looked through various scone recipes on line and then decided to come up with my own version.\u00a0 I took this delicious biscuit recipe<\/a> and turned it into these orange chocolate scones by switching some ingredients and adding some more.\u00a0 Scones, in my opinion, are just fancy biscuits. And by the way, there are variations on that original biscuit recipe here,<\/a> here, <\/a>and here<\/a>.<\/p>\n Scones can be sweet or savory, but today’s recipe is on the sweet side.\u00a0 We shared this savory bacon and dried tomato scone<\/a> recipe with you a few years ago.\u00a0 It, too, is a delicious scone but would be better served along with a bowl of soup rather than as the star of an afternoon tea.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \n Orange Chocolate Scones Recipe<\/h2>\n
