Soft and buttery Cheese Rolls
Description
This recipe begins by mixing flour, sugar, salt, and instant yeast, combining with lukewarm milk and eggs to form a sticky dough. Incorporating softened butter while kneading develops a smooth, elastic consistency. After a first rise, the dough is divided, rolled into squares, and wrapped securely around cheese sticks. A second rise allows the dough to puff before baking.
Baking yields rolls with a soft, tender crust and a buttery interior where the cheese melts, delivering a rich and comforting taste. The balance between the slightly sweet dough and the savory cheese makes these rolls suitable for breakfast, snacks, or alongside meals.
Ingredients
DOUGH
- 3 ⅔ cups all-purpose flour
- ⅓ cup sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon instant yeast
- 1 cup milk lukewarm
- 2 medium egg
- 1 tick butter or shortening, unsalted
FILLING
- 16 pieces cheese sticks 3-inch long and 1cm thick
COATING
- ¼ cup butter softened, unsalted
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
Instructions
- Combine flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl and mix. Sprinkle instant yeast and mix again. Make a well at the middle of the dry mixture.
- Add warm milk and eggs and beat them within the well. Once combined, mix with the rest of the flour mix to create a sticky dough.
- Add the softened butter and knead within the bowl until butter is completely incorporated. Use your hands or an electric mixer with a dough hook attachment. For manual kneading, transfer the sticky dough on a greased surface and knead, using slap and fold method, at least 10 minutes or until smooth and has passed the windowpane test.
- Form into a ball and place on a bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rise until it doubles in size.
- Remove the cover and gently punch the dough down to release the gas bubbles. Tip the dough on an oiled surface, then cut into 16 equal pieces.
- Take a piece and roll into a ball. Using a rolling pin, flatten a piece into about 4x4-inch square. Place a cheese stick on one side and roll towards the end tucking the sides in to fully enclose it within the dough. Repeat with the rest.
- Arrange the rolls in a baking sheet lined with parchment paper leaving enough spaces in between. Cover with a kitchen towel and let them rise until they double in size. Bake at 160°c for 12-15 minutes in a preheated oven.
- Take out of the oven and let them cool a bit. Brush each one with softened butter and sprinkle with sugar.
