I have been told in this day and age it is rare for a 21 year old female to find cooking such a hobby, so i decided to write this blog to keep record of my experiences and cooking conquests. Im definatly big on simple but good meals, and of a decent size! Anything I post up will more than likely be good simple and as Kiwi as can be :-) Hopefully along the way I may inspire other to give it a go, who can resist good food...apart from Posh Spice and Nicole Richie!

Yummy Cheese Scones

This is a good scone recipe which I hav been lazy and decided not to rub in the butter, this worked perfectly so I think I will stick to it!!!

Ingredients
3 Cups Flour
6 tsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp Salt
75 Grams Butter
1 C Cheese or more if your extra cheesy
1 .5 C Milk (one and a half)
Extra Milk
  1. Preheat oven to 220 degress celcius
  2. Sift Dry Ingredients into blender
  3. Add Butter and blend (similiar result to 'cutting' in the butter)
  4. Make sure the butter is all processed and the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs
  5. Pour into a bowl and add cheese and mix
  6. Add milk and quickly mix with a knife until you have a sticky dough
  7. Turn out onto floured over tray or bread board and knead until flattened to an Inch high
  8. Cut out rounds of the dough, I used cookie cutters and place on floured over tray
  9. Bake in oven for about 10mins or until golden
  10. Serve with lots of butter!!!
