My family loves cheeses. As long as there are cheese on or in it. They will enjoy them. Come to think about it, I exposed my kids to cheese diet at a very young age. I think the cheese diet came before the egg diet. As such, my fridge always have cheese for them to snack on.
I am also slowly introducing them the different type of cheeses. One such cheese that it not popular will be the Dessert Cheese.
I doubt I ever baked a Cheese Scone before, today I shall try.
Learning experience: The texture is light and fluffy. I should have added more cheese though.
