1 3/4 cups (about 7 ounces) sharp hard cheese (such as Cheddar)
2 cups heavy cream, plus 2 tablespoons for brushing
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F.
Mix flour, baking powder, salt and pepper. dd chives and 1 1/2 cups cheese. Add 2 cups cream and mix just until a sticky dough forms.
Knead dough on a floured surface until smooth. Divide dough in half, and roll each into an 8 inch round. Brush each round with 1 tablespoon of cream. Using a butter knife, divide each round into 8 scones.
Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup of cheese and bake on a parchment-lined baking sheet for 20 minutes, or until golden brown. For smaller scones, divide dough into three or four rounds. Roll into a 6 inch round and divide into 8 scones.
