About

These savory scones are not only wonderful with soup, they also make darling hors d’oeuvres with wine and cocktails. Feel free to swap out the Cheddar for Gruyère or add some finely chopped fresh herbs along with the chives. You really can’t go wrong: the main thing is to serve the scones warm from the oven, when they are at their tender best.
