CHEDDAR DINNER SCONES

Servings: 12

Ingredients:

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons butter or margarine, cut into bits
1 large egg
3/4 cup milk
1 cup shredded extra sharp Cheddar cheese

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Grease cookie sheet.

Sift flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Blend in butter with
fingers until mixture resembles fine crumbs.

Lightly beat egg and milk. Stir in, along with cheese, just until
blended.

Turn dough out onto lightly floured surface (dough will be sticky).
Working with half the dough at a time, pat into a 5-inch round, about
1 inch high. Score dough to mark 6 wedges, but do not separate.

Bake 20-25 minutes until golden. Serve warm or cool on rack. Makes 12.
