Filipino Cheese Bread Rolls (Cheese Rolls)
Filipino Cheese Bread Rolls are a popular sweet bread snack in the Philippines. They are typically made with flour, butter, eggs, sugar, and milk, then filled with cheese sticks.
Equipment
- stand mixer
Ingredients
- 3 cups all purpose flour add about 3-4 tablespoons
- ⅓ cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon instant yeast
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk lukewarm (110°F (43°C)
- 1 stick unsalted butter softened
- 2 medium eggs
- 16 sticks cheese sticks 3-inch long and 1cm thick
Toppings
- butter softened
- sugar
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt and instant yeast.
- Make a well in the center and add lukewarm milk and eggs. Attach the dough hook and mix in lowest speed until well combined.
- Start adding 2 tablespoons of flour until the dough become less sticky or more if needed. I added 4 tablespoons. Beat for 8-10 minutes until dough forms. Add cubes of butter one at a time while the mixer is running. If using hand kneading, transfer the sticky dough on a greased surface and knead at least 10 minutes or until smooth and has passed the windowpane test.
- Place the kneaded dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place, for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the risen dough to release the air. Divide into equal-sized portions. Flatten each dough portion and place cheese sticks filling in the center, roll and tucking the sides in to fully enclose.
- Place the filled dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving some space between each roll. Let it rise for another 30 minutes.
- Bake in the preheated 160℃/320 ℉ oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool. Brushed with butter and sprinkle some sugar.
