  • Sift the flour into a bowl and rub in the butter until it resembles fine breadcrumbs.
  • Stir in the sugar, chocolate drops, and orange zest.
  • Mix the milk with the juice of one orange in a measuring jug.
  • Gradually add the liquid to the flour mixture until the dough just comes together.
  • Roll out the dough to 2cm thickness and cut out scones using a 5-6cm cutter.
  • Transfer scones to trays, brush with milk, and bake for 10-12 minutes until golden-brown.
  • Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack.
  • Serve the scones with clotted cream and satsumas.
