Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 3/4 inch thick. Cut out rounds using a fluted or plain biscuit cutter, or squares or triangles, lightly re-rolling the dough as necessary. Place the scones on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet and brush the tops with the milk. Bake at 425 degrees F (220 C) for 12-15 minutes or until golden and a skewer inserted in the mddle comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack. these can be made the day before and reheated in a paper bag or tinfoil in the oven or microwave. Served with clotted cream or jam.
