with MARIGOLD LADY GENERAL Full Cream Sweetened Condensed Milk
Cheese & Chive Scones
Made With MARIGOLD
KING OF KINGS Full Cream Evaporated Milk
Ingredients
200ml + 3 tbsp MARIGOLD KING OF KINGS Evaporated Full Cream Milk
2 tbsp white vinegar
500g self-raising flour
¼ tsp salt
180g butter, cubed
160g gruyere or sharp cheddar cheese, grated
2 tbsp chopped chives
1 tsp ground black pepper
2 eggs, lightly beaten
Method
1
Preheat oven to 200°C.
2
Combine 200ml MARIGOLD Evaporated Milk with the vinegar and set aside.
3
Sift flour and salt into a bowl. Using your fingertips, rub the cold butter into the flour until crumbly. Add the cheese (reserving a handful to sprinkle over the scones later), chives and pepper, and stir to mix evenly.
4
Stir the eggs into the milk and vinegar mixture, then pour it into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a wooden spoon and stop as soon as a soft dough forms (it will be loose and craggy).
5
Lightly flour a clean work surface. Turn the dough onto the work surface and knead it several times until it comes together. Gently pat the dough out to 2.5cm thickness.
6
Cut out the dough using a 6 cm round scone or cookie cutter that’s been dipped in flour. Transfer scones to a baking tray.
7
Brush the scones with the remaining 3 tbsp of MARIGOLD Evaporated Milk and sprinkle the remaining grated cheese over the scones.
8
Bake for 18 minutes, or until golden and risen.
