directions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425 °F (220 °C).

Step 2

Blend the flour with the baking powder, chili flakes, chili powder and salt. Add butter and fold into the dry mixture using a pastry blender (or two knives) until the mixture is crumbly. Add 1/2 cup (125 ml) of the Canadian Cheddar cheese and toss to combine.

Step 3

Using a spoon, make a depression in the dry ingredients and pour in milk. Stir until a lumpy dough has been formed.

Step 4

Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead until it binds. Roll or pat to 3/4-in (2 cm) thickness.

Step 5

Cut into desired shapes, re-rolling scraps, and arrange on an un-greased baking tray. Sprinkle remaining cheese over the tops.

Step 6

Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden on the bottom.
