Description

Soft and fluffy bread rolls filled with gooey melted cheese, perfect as a snack, side dish, or appetizer. These cheese bread rolls are easy to make and ideal for sharing at gatherings or enjoying as a comforting treat.

Ingredients

Dough

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 packet active dry yeast (about 2 1/4 tsp)
  • 1 cup warm milk
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 2 tbsp butter (melted)
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Filling

  • 1 cup cheese (cubed or shredded, preferably mozzarella for a stretchy filling)

Instructions

  1. Activate yeast: Dissolve the active dry yeast and sugar in warm milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy, indicating the yeast is active.
  2. Make dough: Add the melted butter, salt, and flour into the yeast mixture. Mix to form a soft dough.
  3. Knead dough: Knead the dough on a floured surface until it becomes smooth and elastic, about 8-10 minutes. Place it in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour until it doubles in size.
  4. Shape rolls: Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 10 equal portions. Flatten each dough ball slightly to prepare for filling.
  5. Add filling and seal: Place a portion of cheese in the center of each flattened dough ball. Carefully fold and seal the edges to encase the cheese completely.
  6. Proof rolls: Arrange the sealed rolls on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and let them rest for 20 minutes to rise slightly again.
  7. Bake rolls: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Bake the rolls for 18-20 minutes or until they turn golden brown on top.
  8. Optional finishing: Brush the hot rolls with melted butter immediately after baking for an extra soft and flavorful crust.

Notes

  • Brushing with butter after baking enhances softness and adds flavor.
  • Use mozzarella cheese for a wonderfully stretchy and gooey filling.
  • Ensure milk is warm, not hot, to avoid killing the yeast.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm, draft-free area for best results.
