This is not something that's ever happened to me before. I don't even own any Christmas music (but Last.fm is awesome- I can type in "indie pop christmas" and get a playlist that goes on forever.)
Spiced Cheese Scones
Ingredients
3 Cups flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 stick of butter (chopped into biggish chunks)
8 oz cheese, grated (cumin clove, if you can find it, something else fancy if you can't)
1 1/2 Cups buttermilk
Put all the dry, powdery stuff into the food processor, add the butter chunks and give 'em a whirl. A few seconds should get the butter down to pebble size or smaller.
Dump all that good stuff into a big bowl and stir in the cheese.
Add the buttermilk and just mix it together- no extra stirring!
On a lightly floured surface, pat your dough into a inch-thick (or so) round and cut into wedges. However many wedges you want! Or make circles, or whatever!
Put your scone dough shapes onto a parchment papered- cookie sheet and bake for 30 min at 375- they should be browning on top.
Enjoy!
