These turned out exactly how I wanted. My dad is always asking us to make cheese scones, so for a birthday treat I made these. I took a nibble of one before packaging them, and the flavor was delicious. They were also easy to make; I just wonder if there will be differences in the batches since the amount of milk isn't fixed. I also added a dash of garlic powder and a couple dashes of paprika and pepper flakes.

I live in New Delhi, India. I am a stay-at-home grandmom. I spend a fair amount of time on the net....and while surfing for a recipe ran into this site. After that; this is it....a one-stop station for every kind of recipe. I have no favourite cookbook but love collecting recipes from any source. I play a lot of scrabble (Any potential scrabblers out there?!) and hate cooking in summers. Temperatures run into the 40 degrees cent. range and our kitchens are not airconditioned!! I love travelling and, given a chance, would take a month long luxury cruise which touched exotic ports! Aaaahhh....pure bliss!!!!
