Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment. In a large bowl, cut the cold butter into the self-rising flour until the mixture resembles coarse sand with some pea-sized butter pieces.

Add the cottage cheese and fold with a fork just until a shaggy dough forms.

Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface, pat into a 1-inch-thick round, and cut into 8 wedges. Place on the prepared sheet.

Bake for 12 to 14 minutes until golden on top, then cool 2 minutes and serve warm.
