Ingredients
For the Dough:
- 4 cups (500 g) all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
- 2 envelopes (about 4 ½ teaspoons) rapid-rise yeast
- ¼ cup (50 g) granulated sugar
- 1 large egg, at room temperature
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 ½ cups (366 g) whole milk, warmed to about 110°F (43°C)
For the Filling:
- 2 cups (226 g) sharp cheddar cheese, shredded (thick cut)
- 1 tablespoon fresh garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives, minced
For the Topping:
- 2 tablespoons salted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon fresh garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh chives, minced
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
Cooking Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Dough
- In a stand mixer bowl with a dough hook attachment, combine 3 cups of flour, yeast, sugar, egg, and salt.
- Gradually add the warmed milk and mix until combined. Knead for about 2 minutes on medium speed.
- Add another ½ cup of flour and continue kneading for another 2 minutes.
- Incorporate the remaining flour along with the cheese, garlic, and chives. Knead until the dough is soft and pulls away from the bowl’s sides. If too wet, add flour in ¼ cup increments until desired consistency is reached.
Step 2: First Rise
- Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm place for about 45 minutes, or until doubled in size.
Step 3: Shape the Scrolls
- Punch down the dough to release air. Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
- Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces and shape each into a ball. Place them in the prepared baking dish.
- Cover again with plastic wrap and let rise for another 30 minutes, or until doubled.
Step 4: Bake
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Bake the rolls for 22-27 minutes, or until golden brown.
Step 5: Add Topping
- In a small bowl, mix melted butter with minced garlic and chives.
- Brush this mixture over warm rolls and sprinkle with salt before serving.
