Ingredients

• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 packet Active dry yeast
• 1 cup Warm water (110°F or 43°C)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1.5 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 0.75 cup Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and active dry yeast.

Step 2

Pour the warm water and olive oil into the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough begins to form.

Step 3

Transfer the dough to a floured work surface and knead for 8–10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.

Step 4

Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.

Step 5

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 6

Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces.

Step 7

Flatten each dough piece into a small circle (about 3–4 inches in diameter).

Step 8

In a bowl, mix the shredded mozzarella and crumbled Gorgonzola cheeses together.

Step 9

Spoon about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture into the center of each dough circle.

Step 10

Fold the edges of the dough over the filling and pinch to seal, forming a small ball. Place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 11

Let the rolls rise for another 15–20 minutes.

Step 12

Brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic powder.

Step 13

Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, or until golden brown.

Step 14

Once out of the oven, brush the rolls with any remaining melted butter and garnish with chopped parsley.

Step 15

Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!
