Method

• Before starting the recipe preheat your oven to 200°C / 392°F or gas mark 6.
• Sift all of the dry ingredients to a large bowl.
• Note: If you’re using plain or all-purpose flour, you need to add an extra 2 tsp of baking powder to the recipe.
• Add the cold butter to the bowl, and rub together until it resembles fine bread crumbs.
• Fold in the grated cheese with your fingers until it is evenly incorporated.
• Add the milk, and cut it in using a dinner knife.
• Gently fold the mixture together into a dough by hand, taking care not to over handle the dough.
• Handling the rolling pin lightly, gently roll the dough out into a rectangle approximately 2.5cm / 1in thick.

• Cut the dough into approximately 8 scones with a 6cm / 2½in scone cutter or knife.
• Place the scones on a greased baking tray, brush the tops with milk and add a little finely grated cheese on top, and underneath each one.
• Place the tray into the preheated oven and set your timer for 14 minutes, times may vary between 13 and 17 minutes due to varying temperatures of different ovens.
• When the time is up, remove from the oven when golden brown and allow them to cool on a wire rack.
• Serve warm, with lashings of butter.
• Enjoy.
