Recipe:

Ingredients:

For the Dough:

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup warm milk (about 110°F or 43°C)
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 large egg

For the Garlic Butter:

• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

For the Filling:

• 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (or any cheese of your choice)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Dough:
   • In a large mixing bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.
   • Add the melted butter, egg, and salt to the yeast mixture. Mix well.
   • Gradually add flour, one cup at a time, mixing until a soft dough forms.
   • Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic.
   • Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
2. Shape the Rolls:
   • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
   • Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 12 equal portions.
   • Flatten each portion and place a spoonful of shredded cheese in the center. Pinch the edges together to seal the cheese inside and shape it into a ball.
   • Place the rolls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
3. Prepare the Garlic Butter:
   • In a small bowl, combine melted butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, and salt. Mix well.
4. Bake the Rolls:
   • Brush the tops of the rolls generously with the garlic butter mixture.
   • Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown on top.
   • Once out of the oven, brush with more garlic butter for an extra burst of flavor.
5. Serve:
   • Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm, soft, and cheesy!
