This is my go-to recipe whenever I need to rustle up baked goods quickly. Fast and easy to make, these scones are delicious warm or cold and for decadence split and spread with butter or with a dollop of sour cream or creme fraiche. They make a wonderful accompaniment to a bowl of soup, especially a nice tangy tomato soup.

Steps:
- Rub the butter into the flour until it resembles breadcrumbs and no lumps of butter remain.
- Add the two types of grated cheese, the salt and the hot pepper flakes.
- make a well in the centre and add the beaten eggs with the splash of soda or mineral water and mix all ingredients together until a soft dough is formed. Add a little more water if necessary but take care not to make the dough too sticky.
- Place the dough on a clean floured surface and knead it very slightly until it is smooth.
- Roll out with a rolling pin until approximately 3/4 inch thick, then use a round cookie cutter to cut out rounds.
- Place the rounds on a baking sheet.
- Bake at 200 degrees celsius for around 15 to 20 minutes or until the scones are golden brown on top.
- Cool on a cooling rack.
