INSTRUCTIONS
-
Whisk together the warmed milk and 1 teaspoon of sugar in a large bowl. Next whisk in the yeast and cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel. Set aside for 8-10 minutes or until the mixture has a foamy, bubbly appearance with a fermented aroma.
-
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and remaining sugar. Set aside. Using an electric mixer with a dough hook  mix the egg and butter into the activated yeast at medium speed to combine.
-
Reduce speed to low and mix all of the dry ingredients into the liquid mixture until a shaggy-looking dough forms. Increase speed to medium-high and knead the dough for 6 minutes.
-
The dough should be soft and tacky to the touch. If the dough is too soft and overly sticky, mix in additional flour 1 tablespoon at a time until it is more manageable to work with. For soft and fluffy bread, take care to not add too much flour.
-
Transfer the dough into a large greased mixing bowl and cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel. Place the bowl in a warm part of the kitchen and allow the dough to rise until it has doubled in size, about 60-90 minutes.
-
Generously grease a 20cm Springform Pan. Set aside. Gently deflate the dough with a fisted hand, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the dough rest for 5 minutes.
-
Transfer the dough to a generously floured surface and sprinkle some flour on top of the dough. Divide the dough into 9 equal pieces.
-
Working with one piece of dough at a time, flatten into a disk about 3.5-4 inches and fill the centre with 2 heaping tablespoons (1 oz) of cheese. Enclose the filling with the outer dough and pinch shut to form a ball. Transfer the filled dough to the prepared baking pan pinched side down and repeat with the remaining pieces of dough and cheese.
-
Cover the baking pan with plastic wrap, place the pan in a warm part of the kitchen to rise for 25-30 minutes. During the last 15 minutes of the second rise, preheat the oven to 350F. Bake the bread for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown in colour.
-
Make the garlic butter coating by whisking together the melted butter, parsley, garlic, and salt. Use a pastry brush to coat the warm rolls in the garlic butter before serving.
Enjoy!
