Scones are kind of like a cross between quick bread and biscuit. 
They're a one-bowl baked good that can be savory or sweet, circular 
(traditional in British cooking) or triangular (v American).

PREP: 15 MINS
TOTAL: 45 MINS

Preheat oven to 400F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In 
a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup cream and egg. In a large bowl, 
whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Using your fingers, rub butter into flour mixture until it resembles 
coarse meal, with a few pea-size pieces of butter remaining. Add 3/4 
cup of cheddar, Gruyère, and green onions, and toss to coat.

With a fork, stir in cream mixture until just combined. (The dough 
should be crumbly; do not overwork.)

Transfer dough to a work surface and pat into a 6" circle and cut 
into 6 wedges. Arrange scones on prepared baking sheet. Brush tops 
with remaining 1 tablespoon cream and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup 
of cheddar cheese.

Bake until golden, 18 to 20 minutes, rotating sheet halfway through.
