How to cook

Prepare the yeast mixture

Dissolve the yeast in room temperature milk.

Prepare the dough

Add flour, sugar, and salt to a stand mixer bowl and whisk.
Combine with softened butter until thoroughly incorporated.
Mix the flour mixture on medium low speed and add in the yeast mixture, eggs and egg yolk.
Mix for 10 minutes or until smooth.
Place the dough onto a lightly floured work surface and knead for about 1-2 minutes.
Roll the dough into ball and let it sit in a covered bowl to proof for 1 hour or until it doubles in size.

Prepare the cinnamon sugar

Whisk together brown sugar and cinnamon powder.

Prepare the rolls

Flour a flat surface for the dough.
Flatten the dough into thick, large rectangles.
Spread softened butter across the surface of dough.
Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar and grated mozzarella cheese evenly.
Tightly roll the dough rectangles lengthwise.
Use a serrated knife to cut the dough into thick segments to form the rolls.
Lightly grease a big enough baking dish and fill it with the rolls – have the tails of the rolls face each other.
Proof the rolls for about 35 minutes or until it is 1.5 times its original size.
