Ingredients

  • FOR THE ROLLS:
  • 7 cups All-purpose Flour
  • 2 Tablespoons Yeast
  • 1/2 cups Sugar
  • 2 teaspoons Salt
  • 1/2 cups Butter
  • 2-1/2 cups Milk
  • 2 whole Eggs
  • 1 pound Block Of Cheddar Cheese, Cut Into Small Cubes
  • FOR THE TOPPING:
  • 1/4 cups Butter
  • 1 clove Garlic, Minced
  • 1 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
  • 2 Tablespoons Chopped Parsley

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 350 F.
  2. 2
    In the bowl of an electric mixer combine 4 cups of the flour, yeast, sugar and salt. Set aside.
  3. 3
    In a medium size sauce pan over low heat, melt the butter. When butter has melted add the milk into the pan. Continue to barely warm the milk until it reaches a temperature of about 110-115 F. Remove from the heat and pour the milk mixture over the flour mixture while the mixer is running. Continue to beat for about 5-7 minutes. Make sure the yeast has dissolved. Then beat in the eggs. Add remaining flour 1 cup at a time. Add enough flour to make a soft, slightly sticky dough or until the dough begins to pull away from the edges of the bowl while mixing.
  4. 4
    Place the dough in a large bowl that has been oiled. Turn the dough in the bowl to coat it completely in the oil. Cover the bowl with a tea towel or some greased plastic wrap and let the dough rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until the dough has doubled in size.
  5. 5
    Remove the dough from the bowl and place on a countertop. Divide the dough in half then divide each half into quarters. Divide each quarter into 8 equal size balls. Place a cube of cheese in the middle of each piece of dough. Pull the dough around the cheese to form a ball then pinch the dough tightly so that the cheese doesn't melt out during baking. This will make approximately 36-40 rolls.
  6. 6
    Place the rolls on a parchment lined baking sheet about 1/2-inch apart. Cover the baking sheet and let the dough rise for about 30 minutes. Bake in the preheated 350 F oven for 20 minutes or until golden.
  7. 7
    Meanwhile, melt the 1/4 cup butter in the microwave and then add the minced garlic. Set aside. Mix the grated parmesan cheese with the parsley and set aside.
  8. 8
    When the rolls come out of the oven, immediately brush them with the garlic butter and sprinkle with parmesan cheese parsley mixture. Serve immediately.
  9. 9
    Makes about 36-40 rolls.
