Cheese Scones

2 c. flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
pink cayenne pepper
2 c. grated mature cheddar (Irish cheddar from Costco, Trader Joe's, or Wegman's works best)
1 c. full fat milk

1. Preheat oven to 430 degrees.
2. Sift dry ingredients together or stir with a whisk.
3. Add cheese, then milk. Mix lightly.
4. Turn onto a lightly floured tray, shape into a rectangle 3 cm (just more than an inch) high. Cut into at least 8 (my sister-in-law likes up to 20 smaller squares).
5. Slightly bake 15-20 minutes until golden.
