Another recipe from Cuisine at Home October 2008 magazine. A great side dish to go with the Irish Stew recipe from them, I submitted.
Ingredients:
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon table salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
1/3 cup fresh chives, minced
1 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons water
1 egg, blended with 1 t water
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl. Cut butter in with a pastry blender or fork until pea-sized.
3. Stir in cheddar and chives, then add buttermilk and 2 T water; knead gently just until blended. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and pat into an 8 square. Cut into 2 squares, then cut squares into triangles. Arrange scones on baking sheet, spacing 1 apart.
4. Brush tops with egg-water mix and bake until golden, about 25 minutes.
