Ingredients
    1 3/4 cups flour
    1/3 cup sugar

    5 tablespoons cold unsalted butter
    1 large Symphony candy bar, broken up into chunks or 1/2 cup chocolate chips

    Preheat oven to 400.
    Spray baking sheet with nonstick spray.
    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
    Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles large crumbs.
    Stir in the chocolate.
    Mix in the orange juice to form the dough (sometimes you may need more orange juice) Turn out the dough on a floured surface.
    Roll or pat into a 9\" circle about half an inch thick.
    Cut into 4 large wedges and transfer to baking sheet.
    Bake until golden, about 12-15 minutes.
    I use this for strawberry shortcake or top with ice cream.
