One thing that I love to have ready in the freezer are baked goods. These little scones topped with a little jam make a quick breakfast, but they also make perfect side at lunch or dinner.

Make It Now Cooking Directions

Oven Cook

These directions are for cooking this recipe to serve immediately and NOT to freeze for later.

  1. Mix flour, salt, baking powder, and mustard in a large bowl.
  2. Cut butter into flour mixture – a pastry blender works great for this – until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Stir in cheese.
  4. Add milk and mix until a dough begins to form.
  5. Turn out onto a floured surface and knead a few times. Try not to overwork the dough because this will make the scones tough.
  6. Roll or press dough to a thickness of about half an inch.
  7. Cut into wedges, or use a small biscuit cutter (I used a 2.5 inch cutter).
  8. Place scones on a baking sheet and bake at 425 for 10 minutes or until golden brown.

  1. looks like a good all purpose biscuit! how small does the butter need to be diced? I have never heard of using chilled butter in dough……. does it end up warming up in the mix?

    1. When I chop my butter, I first chop into tablespoon-sized slices, then I chop each one into quarters. The butter needs to be cold so that when you mix it with the flour you get coarse crumbs. If its too warm it mashes and gets more creamed which is not what you want for this recipe. Hope that helps!
