👩🍳 How to Make Cheese Garlic Rolls (Step by Step)
1️⃣ Prepare the Dough
To begin, mix warm milk, yeast, and sugar. After about 10 minutes, bubbles should appear — that means the yeast is active. Then, add flour, salt, and oil. Knead the dough until smooth and elastic. Finally, cover and let it rise for 1 hour until doubled in size.
2️⃣ Prepare Garlic Butter
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine softened butter, minced garlic, and chopped herbs. This mixture will add flavor and aroma to your cheese garlic rolls.
3️⃣ Shape the Rolls
Once the dough has risen, punch it down gently. Next, roll it out into a rectangle and spread the garlic butter evenly. After that, sprinkle cheese all over, roll it up tightly, and cut into equal pieces.
4️⃣ Second Rise
Now, place the rolls on a baking tray and cover them for 30–40 minutes. They should puff up nicely before baking.
5️⃣ Bake
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Brush the tops with melted butter and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until golden and cheesy.
6️⃣ Final Touch
Right after baking, brush the rolls again with garlic butter for that extra shine and flavor. Serve warm and enjoy!

❓ FAQs
1. Can I make it without yeast?
Yes! You can use self-rising flour instead, though the texture will be denser.
2. What kind of cheese is best?
Mozzarella melts beautifully, but a mix of mozzarella and cheddar adds a deeper flavor.
3. Can I make these ahead?
Definitely! Prepare the rolls, refrigerate overnight, and bake fresh in the morning.
4. Can I use whole wheat flour?
Yes, but mix it with half all-purpose flour to keep them soft.
💡 Chef’s Tip
