Cheesy-Stuffed Garlic Butter Rolls

Last weekend I utilized some time for practicing the art of bread making. I realized that the best breads come with some good practice and passion. And it totally depends on the dough and the way it is kneaded, good quality yeast and the rising time for the dough. The rest of it is terribly easy-cheesy.

Now I am posting a tried and tested recipe for a perfect appetizer which can be every bread lover's dream. It is light, it is kiddish, it is flavorful and a popular finger food now. Oh yes, It is cheesy also because it combines butter, cheese and some garlic seasoned alongside with a dash of Italian spices.

The Cheesy-Stuffed Garlic Butter Rolls are ooey-gooey and delicious, they will upgrade your tea time table to higher levels with their presence. You can enjoy them with a sour dip and you will realize that they are tastier than the bakery stuff.

Now on to the recipe:

INGREDIENTS:

For the Dough:

1 cup Flour

1 tsp Instant yeast

1/2 tsp Salt

1/2 tsp sugar

1 tbsp oil/ melted butter

For the Filling:

4 string cheeses, cut in half
2 tablespoons salted butter
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 small clove garlic, minced

HOW TO MAKE:

1) Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat and set aside.

2)  In a mixing bowl, add flour, salt , yeast and mix well to form a soft dough. Add in the Oil and knead for 5 min. Let it sit for 30 min or until it doubles in size.

3) While the dough is resting, you can make the garlic butter. In a small bowl, melt butter together with Italian seasoning and garlic. Keep aside.

4) Punch the air out of the dough and knead for 5 min. If the dough is very sticky, you can use very little flour and mix well. Make a smooth dough.

5)  Make small balls from it and roll out each ball into thick circles. With a knife or a pizza cutter, you can cut the circle into 4 equal quarters.

 

6) Separate each quarter from one another. Now they resemble triangles with one circular edge.

 

7) Brush the tops of the quarters with some garlic butter. Place half a string cheese at the wide end and roll up.

 

 

8) Arrange in a foil lined tray. Let it rest for 30 more min or until they double in size. Repeat the same for all the rolls. Brush all of them with more garlic butter.

 

9) After they double in size, bake them in an oven till light golden brown.

 

 

10) Serve them warm with sour cream or Ketchup.

 

Note : If you find your baked buns or rolls hard or crispy on the outside, you have to cover them with a wet clean towel soon after they are out of the oven. After 10 minutes, you will find them softened.
