- Stir in the cheese then the milk to get a soft dough.
- Turn on to a floured work surface and knead very lightly. Pat out to an oval 2cm thick. Cut into 6 - 8 pieces depending on how large you like your scones then place on the baking sheet. If you prefer you can also use a cutter to stamp out rounds.
