   Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.In a large bowl, use a fork to whisk together the pastry flour, baking powder, and salt.
2. 2
   Pour in the cream and stir to combine just until the dry ingredients are moistened.Pick up the dough with your hands and pat it down into one big square about 1/2 inch thick on a large baking sheet. Use extra flour if necessary to keep it from sticking to your hands.
3. 3
   Cut the dough into 16 equal squares, and then spread them out on the baking sheet so they are all at least a couple inches apart.
4. 4
   Brush the tops with milk if desired (for browner tops).

   Bake until a deep golden brown on the bottom, about 10 - 12 minutes.
6. 6
