Ingredients

2½ cups self-raising flour

50g cold butter, chopped

1-1¼ cups milk

2 tbsp Vegemite

2 cups grated Tasty cheese

Extra 1 tbsp milk

Method

Step 1

Place flour in a large bowl. Rub in butter with fingertips to form fine crumbs. Make a well in the centre. Then, using a table knife, gently stir in enough milk so mixture comes together to form a soft, but not sticky, dough.

Step 2

Turn dough onto a lightly floured bench. Gently knead until smooth (don’t over-knead). Roll out dough to a 25cm x 35cm rectangle. Spread with Vegemite. Sprinkle with 1½ cups of the cheese. Roll up dough firmly from one long side to form a log. Cut into eight even-sized pieces.

Step 3

Place 3cm apart, cut side up, on a greased, large oven tray. Brush with extra milk. Sprinkle with remaining cheese.

Step 4

Cook in a 190°C preheated oven for about 18-20 mins, until golden brown. Remove from oven. Transfer to a wire rack.

Step 5

Serve scrolls warm, or at room temperature.
