Cheese and Chive Scones

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Grease and flour a baking sheet. Sift flour and salt into a bowl. Rub in the margarine with the fingertips to make a fine crumbs, then add cheese, chives and three-quarters of the milk to make a soft dough. Add remaining milk only if needed.

Turn onto a lightly floured surface. Press out the dough with the fingertips until 3/4 inch thick. Cut into rounds with a floured biscuit cutter and place on the baking sheet.

Brush the tops with milk and bake for about 10 minutes, until well colored and cooked through.
