Cheddar and Green Onion Scones


You may wonder if this has turned into a cooking blog. It hasn't. I am just really into cooking right now. :) Especially with my crock pot. Last night I made a slow cooker cheesy potato soup and then decided to make these scones to go with. It is a Better Homes and Garden's recipe I doctored.

Here's what you'll need:

3 cups flour
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1 Tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon cr. of tartar
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1 1/2 sticks of cold butter
 
1 1/4-1/2 cup milk (I used almond milk and it was great, and healthier!)

3/4 cup shredded cheddar
1/2 cup chopped green onions
 
 
Preheat over to 450 degrees.


In a medium bowl stir together all the dry  ingredients. Cut the butter into chunks. Cut into dry ingredients until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.




 
 
Add the cheese and green onion...





 Add the milk. Start with 1 1/4 c.  Increase to 1 1/2 cups if it seems too dry. 

Drop onto greased cookie sheet. (Makes 12-16 depending on the size you make them)


Bake at 450 for 13-15 minutes or until golden and springy to touch.
