1️⃣ Activate the Yeast
- In a large bowl, mix warm milk, sugar, and dry yeast.
- Let it sit for 5–10 minutes until foamy—this means the yeast is active!
2️⃣ Make the Dough
- Add flour and salt to the yeast mixture and mix until combined.
- Pour in the olive oil and knead the dough for 8–10 minutes until soft and elastic. (You can use a stand mixer or knead by hand!)
- Cover the dough with a cloth and let it rise for 30–40 minutes, or until it doubles in size.
3️⃣ Shape the Cheese-Filled Rolls
- Once risen, divide the dough into equal-sized portions (about 10–12 pieces).
- Flatten each piece and place a small handful of shredded cheese in the center.
- Pinch the edges together to seal and roll into a smooth ball.
4️⃣ Arrange & Brush
- Place the stuffed dough balls onto a lined baking tray, slightly apart.
- In a small bowl, mix 1 egg yolk with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and brush over the rolls for a golden, glossy finish.
5️⃣ Bake to Perfection
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and fluffy.
6️⃣ Serve & Enjoy!
- Let the cheese-filled rolls cool slightly before serving.
- Enjoy them warm with butter, soup, or as a snack!
