GARLIC CREAM CHEESE ROLLS

Garlic Cream Cheese Rolls are buttery rolls that melt in your mouth and are filled and rolled with a garlic-cheese mixture that will taste good in every bite.

Ingredients

Dough
2/3 cup (163g) whole milk, heated in the microwave for about 30 seconds
5 tablespoons of granulated sugar, divided
2 teaspoons active dry yeast
2 large eggs, at room temperature
2 3/4 cups (344g) all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup (1 stick or 113g) unsalted butter, cut into 1-inch pieces, at room temperature
1/2 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted

Garlic cream cheese filling
8 ounces (1 package) cream cheese, softened
2 teaspoons chives, chopped
2 teaspoons garlic, minced
2 cups (226g) white cheddar cheese, grated

Topping
3 tablespoons of butter, melted
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
1 teaspoon of chives, diced
1 teaspoon of salt
1 spoonful of parmesan cheese, grated and sprinkled on top.

Instructions

Dough
In a medium bowl, combine milk and a tablespoon of sugar. Sprinkle yeast over milk and beat to mix. Let stand until yeast is frothy, about 5 minutes.
Add the eggs. Beat until smooth.
In the bowl of a stand mixer with a dough hook, combine the remaining 4 tablespoons of sugar, flour and salt.
Add the milk mixture. With the mixer running, add the butter, one piece at a time, mixing well between the additions.
Knead at medium speed for 1 minute. Increase speed to medium-high and knead until dough is smooth (about 5 minutes). Add more flour, one tablespoon at a time, if the dough does not come together.
Brush a medium bowl with some melted butter. Place dough in bowl and brush top of dough with remaining melted butter. Cover with plastic wrap.
Let the dough rise in a warm, draught-free area until it doubles in size (about 1 hour).
When ready, tap the dough, turn it over on a floured surface and roll it into a 10×15-inch rectangle. (It should be about 1/4 inch thick).

Garlic cream cheese filling
To make the cream cheese filling, beat the cream cheese, chives, garlic and salt until smooth.

Assembly
Spread the cream cheese mixture over the dough. Cover the mixture with the grated cheese.
Roll up the dough with strength, starting from the long edge.
Using a very sharp knife, cut the trunk into 12 rolls. Place them on a greased baking tray of 9×13 inches. Let them rise in a warm place until they double in size.

Baking
While the rolls are rising, preheat the oven to 350°F.
Bake for 25-30 minutes.
Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes.

Topping
To make the butter topping, combine the melted butter with the garlic, chives and salt in a small bowl.
Brush the butter topping over the hot rolls and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
Serve hot.
