Method:

1. Line a baking sheet with foil; grease the foil. Set aside.

2. In a medium bowl combine flour, baking powder and salt. Using a pastry blender, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Make a well in the center of flour mixture; set aside.

3. In a small bowl combine cottage cheese, milk and chives. Add cottage mixture all at once to the flour mixture. Using a fork, stir just until moistened.

4. Drop dough by generous tablespoonfuls onto prepared baking sheet.

5. Bake in a 425°C oven for 15 to 18 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from baking sheet; serve warm.
