How to Make Parmesan Cheese Rolls

  1. In a large bowl, combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning.
  2. In a separate saucepan, heat 1 cup milk, 1/2 cup water, and 1/4 cup unsalted butter over medium heat until the mixture reaches 120°F (49°C). Stir until butter is melted and mixture is warm.
  3. Add the warm milk mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
  4. Beat in 1 large egg. Gradually add 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup additional all-purpose flour, one tablespoon at a time, until a soft dough forms.
  5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
  6. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place (or a warm oven with the light on) for 15 minutes.
  7. Punch down the dough and divide it into 15-20 equal-sized balls.
  8. Melt 1/4 cup unsalted butter. Dip each dough ball in the melted butter, then roll it in 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
  9. Arrange the cheese rolls in a greased 13x9 inch baking pan.
  10. Cover the pan loosely with plastic wrap and let rise for another 15 minutes.
  11. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
