2CupsAll-purpose Flour
1Tbsp.Baking Powder
1tsp.Salt
3/4CupUnsalted Butter, diced
3Eggs(Divided)
1/2CupMilk
7ozSmoked Gouda, cut into small cubes

Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and line baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Add the diced butter and mix until the butter is incorporated, but not quite fully combined.
Add 2 eggs and the milk until it is barely mixed. Transfer dough to a floured surface and knead until it forms a dough. Add the smoked gouda and dill and knead about a minute or until the ingredients are well-distributed.
Press the dough out into a circle approximately 3/4 inch thick. Cut into eight triangles as if you're cutting a pizza. Place each scone onto parchment lined baking sheet.
In a small bowl, combine one egg with a splash of water or milk. Brush egg wash on the top of each scone.
Bake in oven for about 25 minutes, or until the tops are browned and crispy. Store in airtight container.
