Preheat your oven to 400.
In a large mixing bowl combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and a pinch of salt. Whisk that real quick. Now take the chilled butter and add it to the bowl. Using your fingers, press the butter through them to create thin flakes. Keep going until the butter has completely crumbled and fully incorporated into the flour. We don’t want any large chunks of butter.
In a smaller bowl, whisk together the milk and egg and add it to the flour mix. Add the grated cheese and chopped sausage as well. Using a wooden spoon, give this a rough stir to start combining. Then tip it onto a floured work surface and knead the dough until it becomes a mound.
Using a pastry cutter, cut the dough in half, then into fourths, then into eighths. They’ll be little triangles, which are scones shaped. Cute, huh?
Transfer onto a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, until the scones have baked through and are puffed and golden.
Serve with room temperature butter for spreading and dive in!
Makes eight scones.
