Preparation 15min

Directions

Preheat oven to 220C.

Line a baking tray with non stick baking paper.

Place cheese in TM bowl and grate for 6 seconds on speed 8.

Add butter, mustard and cayenne pepper, mix for 6 seconds on speed 6, or until combined.

Set aside. No need to wash the bowl.

Place flour, salt, extra butter and extra cheese into TM bowl and mix for approx. 8 seconds on speed 8, or until mixture resembles breadcrumbs.

Add buttermilk, and mix for approx. 8 seconds on speed 5, until dough almost comes together.

Set dial to closed lid position and mix for 20 seconds on Interval speed to form a soft and sticky dough.

Place on a lightly floured surface and press out to 2.5cm thick.

Dip a 5cm cutter into flour, to prevent dough sticking.

Cut out scones, and place so just touching on prepared baking tray.

Spoon 1 teaspoon of reserved cheese mixture onto the top of each scone.

Bake for 16-20 minutes, or until golden and hollow when tapped on top.

Serve warm.
