Step-by-Step Instructions for Buttery Cheese Garlic Rolls
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and roast the garlic in a covered ramekin for about 2 hours until golden.
  2. Warm 1 cup of milk, sprinkle in yeast and sugar, stir gently, and let it proof for 10 minutes.
  3. Mix together the flours, salt, and butter, then add the yeast mixture and egg yolks. Combine until a dough forms.
  4. Knead the dough for about 15 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  5. Proof the kneaded dough in a greased bowl covered in a warm area for 1.5 hours.
  6. Roll the dough into a rectangle, spread garlic butter, and sprinkle mozzarella cheese over it.
  7. Roll the dough tightly, slice into 6 equal pieces, and let them rise again for 30 minutes.
  8. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C), brush rolls with an egg wash, and bake for 20-25 minutes.
  9. Brush with garlic butter and sprinkle parsley before serving warm.
