Preparation

Preheat oven to 425 °F (220 °C).

Blend flour with baking powder, chili flakes, chili powder and salt. Add butter and cut into dry mixture using a pastry blender or two knives until mixture is crumbly. Add 1/2 cup (125 mL) of the Canadian Cheddar cheese and toss to combine.

Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour in milk. Stir until a ragged dough forms. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead until dough comes together. Roll or pat to 3/4-in (2 cm) thickness.

Cut into desired shapes, re-rolling scraps, and arrange on an ungreased baking tray. Sprinkle remaining cheese over tops.

Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden on the bottom.
