Baking Sunday!

Today i have mostly been baking! 

The house is always full of a sweet cupcake smell, these were made for a wedding order, not by me but i did make these yummy cheesey scones

Recently i took a trip to the Yorkshire Dales where i visited the Wensleydale Creamery, i was bad and bought a chunk of cheese.. so i decided to bake these. now i 'm a big fan of sweet scones with some clotted cream and jam, so i took a savory alternative.

Wensleydale & Chive Scones

What you need

225g Self-raising flour, sifted

55g Butter, softened

pinch of salt

50g grated Wensleydale

finely chopped fresh chives

150ml Milk

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 220C

2. Combine the flour, salt and butter in a bowl

3. Stir in the grated cheese and chives

4. Make a well in the middle and add milk bit by bit ( you may not need to use it all ) then mix the mixture to a dough.

5. Knead the dough on a floured work surface then roll out until around 2cm in thickness. I used a round cookie cutter to cut out the scones

6. Place them on a greased baking tray, then use any remaining milk by brushing it on the top of the scones.

7. Bake for around 12 - 15 minutes or until they rise and are golden, then cool on a wire rack.
