2 | c | All-purpose flour |
1 | T | Sugar |
2 | t | Baking powder |
1/2 | t | Baking soda |
1/2 | t | Salt |
1 | T | Chives |

1/4 | c | Butter or margarine, cut up |

2/3 | c | Buttermilk* |
INSTRUCTIONS
Measure and mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, chives and cheddar cheese. Add the butter or margarine. Using a pastry blender or two knives, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles course crumbs. Lightly beat the egg with the buttermilk. Pour in the egg/buttermilk mixture and stir with a fork until the mixture comes together. Turn out onto a floured board and with floured hands knead the dough 5 or 6 times. Place the rounded dough onto a greased baking sheet and, using a floured hand, press the dough out into a circle about 8 inches in diameter. Using a large floured knife, cut into 8 pie-shaped segments. Bake at 425ø for about 15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm with fresh butter and enjoy! *If you don't have buttermilk on hand, add 1 1/2 teaspoons of lemon juice to a measuring cup and then fill with milk to the 2/3 mark. Let it set while you are preparing the other ingredients. The lemon juice will turn the milk into a buttermilk substitute that is just a good as the real thing.
