Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon instant yeast
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon sugar
3/4 cup warm water (about 110°F)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
3 tablespoons unsalted butter (for garlic butter)
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon fresh parsley

Instructions

In a large bowl, combine flour, yeast, salt, and sugar. Stir in warm water and melted butter until a shaggy dough forms.
Knead on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth. Place in a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise for about an hour until doubled.
Punch down the dough and divide into 12 pieces. Flatten each piece and place cheese in the center. Shape into balls and place seam-side down in a greased baking dish.
Cover with a cloth and let rise for another 30 minutes.
While rising, prepare garlic butter by melting butter with minced garlic and parsley in a small saucepan.
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake rolls for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Brush with garlic butter immediately after baking.
