Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
- 1 cup Warm milk (110°F/43°C)
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 Egg
- 1.5 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cups Grated Parmesan cheese
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes until it turns frothy.
Add the melted butter, egg, salt, and 2 cups of flour to the yeast mixture. Mix until combined.
Gradually add the remaining 1 cup of flour and knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Alternatively, use a stand mixer with a dough hook.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm spot for about 1 hour, or until the dough doubles in size.
In a small bowl, mix the minced garlic, melted butter (2 tablespoons), Parmesan cheese, and parsley. Set aside for later.
After the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Flatten each piece into a small circle and place about 2 tablespoons of mozzarella cheese in the center. Pinch the edges together to form a ball, sealing in the cheese.
Place the cheese-filled dough balls seam-side down in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Cover and let them rise again for 20 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Brush the garlic butter mixture generously over the tops of the rolls.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Optionally, garnish with extra parsley and Parmesan cheese for presentation.
Serve warm and enjoy the gooey cheesy goodness!
