Preheat the oven to 200°C (top/bottom heat) and line a baking sheet with baking paper. Combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Add the butter pieces and rub them into the flour with your fingers until a crumbly dough forms. Then mix in the cheese and tomatoes. Stir in enough milk to form a soft dough. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 2 cm thick. Use a round cookie cutter (or glass) to cut out circles about 6 cm in size. Cut out the scones smaller, larger, or in different shapes (fun for kids), as you like. Place the dough circles on the baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes until golden brown. They should feel firm to the touch. Then let them cool on a wire rack. We like to eat them with spread as a tasty snack between meals. The children love to help with the preparation and love eating them too.
