Steps


Preheat the oven to 400 degrees f.
Combine 4 cups of flour , the baking powder , and salt in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment.
Add the butter and mix on low speed until the butter is in pea-sized pieces.
Mix the eggs and heavy cream and quickly add them to the flour-and-butter mixture.
Combine until just blended.
Toss together the cheddar , dill , and 1 tablespoon of flour and add them to the dough.
Mix until they are almost incorporated.
Dump the dough onto a well-floured surface and knead it for 1 minute , until the cheddar and dill are well distributed.
Roll the dough 3 / 4-inch thick.
Cut into 4-inch squares and then in half diagonally to make triangles.
Brush the tops with egg wash.
