Baking Tips

Ensure your milk is at the right temperature (110°F) – too hot will kill the yeast, too cool won't activate it

For a tangier flavor, substitute part of the milk with sour cream or Greek yogurt

Let the dough rise in a warm, draft-free area for best results

To get ahead, prepare the dough the night before and let it slow-rise in the refrigerator

Freshly grated cheese works better than pre-shredded as it melts more evenly

Use dental floss to get clean cuts without squishing the roll

If the dough is too elastic and springs back when rolling, let it rest for 5-10 minutes and try again

For extra-rich rolls, brush with additional melted butter immediately after baking

Store leftover rolls in an airtight container and reheat briefly in the microwave or oven before serving

The rolls can be frozen after baking - thaw and reheat in a 300°F oven for 10 minutes to restore freshness

For the Dough:

3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) active dry yeast

1 cup warm milk (110°F)

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon salt

1 large egg, room temperature

1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened

For the Cheese Filling:

2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

For the Topping:

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon dried parsley

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Equipment:

Stand mixer with dough hook (optional)

Large mixing bowl

9x13 inch baking pan

Parchment paper

Rolling pin

Pastry brush

Kitchen thermometer

Plastic wrap or clean kitchen towel

Instructions

In a small bowl, combine warm milk (110°F), sugar, and yeast. Let sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy and activated.

In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer bowl, combine 3 cups of flour and salt. Make a well in the center.

Add the yeast mixture, egg, and softened butter to the flour. Mix until combined, then knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic, adding remaining flour as needed to prevent sticking.

Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap or a damp towel, and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

While the dough rises, prepare the cheese filling by combining all filling ingredients in a bowl. Set aside.

Prepare the topping by mixing melted butter with garlic powder and dried parsley in a small bowl. Set aside.

Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper and lightly grease.

Once the dough has doubled, punch it down and turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll into a rectangle approximately 18x12 inches.

Brush the surface of the dough with half of the prepared garlic butter mixture, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges.

Sprinkle the cheese filling mixture evenly over the buttered dough.

Starting from the long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log. Pinch the seam to seal.

Using a sharp knife or unflavored dental floss, cut the log into 12 equal pieces about 1 1/2 inches thick.

Arrange the rolls in the prepared baking pan, cut sides up, leaving some space between each roll for rising.

Cover the rolls and let rise for another 30-45 minutes until puffy.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Brush the tops of the rolls with the remaining garlic butter mixture and sprinkle with the 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese.

Bake for 22-25 minutes, or until golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.

Allow to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before serving warm.
