Cheese Scones

Heat the oven to 220C/425F/Gas 7. Lightly grease a baking sheet.

Mix together the flour, salt and mustard powder and rub in the butter.

Stir in the cheese and then the milk to get a soft dough.

Turn on to a floured work surface and knead very lightly. Pat out to a round 2cm/¾in thick. Use a 5cm/2in cutter to stamp out rounds and place on the baking sheet. Lightly knead together the rest of the dough and stamp out more scones to use it all up.

Brush the tops of the scones with a little milk. Bake for 12-15 minutes until well risen and golden. Cool on a wire rack.
