Instructions
Follow these simple steps to create your own Buttery Cheese Garlic Rolls:
1. Activate Yeast: In a bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt.
3. Mix Wet Ingredients: Add melted butter to the yeast mixture and stir well.
4. Combine Mixtures: Pour the yeast mixture into the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms.
5. Knead the Dough: On a floured surface, knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
6. First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
7. Prepare Filling: In a small bowl, combine minced garlic, mozzarella cheese, and dried parsley.
8. Shape Rolls: Punch down the risen dough and divide it into equal portions. Flatten each piece, add a spoonful of cheese-garlic mixture, and fold it over to seal.
9. Second Rise: Place the rolls seam-side down on a greased baking sheet. Cover and let rise for another 30 minutes.
10. Preheat Oven: During the second rise, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
11. Egg Wash: Beat the egg and brush it over the tops of the rolls for a golden finish.
12. Bake: Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
13. Brush with Butter: Remove from the oven and immediately brush with melted butter for an extra touch of flavor.
