Cheese Scones


225g Self Raising
pinch salt
55g Butter
25g Mature Cheddar Grated
150ml Milk
Put the flour and salt into a bowl and add the cold butter and rub into breadcrumbs. Stir in the cheese and the milk to make a soft dough. Roll out on a floured surface and use round cutter to cut out circles approx 1 inch thick. Bake at 220 for 10-12 mins.
I find my scones dont rise enough and dont know why - have tried all the suggestions of keeping everything as cold as possible, have tried adding baking powder and baking soda but they still dont really rise as much as i want them too - frustrating!
These taste best warm and spread with loads of marmite :-)
