3 cups (375g) all-purpose flour (plus 3 Tbsp more if too sticky)
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 Tbsp instant yeast
2 Tbsp (28g) butter
About 12 cheese sticks
Egg wash: 1 egg + 1 Tbsp water
Coating
1/4 cup powdered milk
2 Tbsp (1/8 cup) sugar
Directions
In a stand mixer, combine the warm milk, egg, sugar, flour, salt, and instant yeast. Mix, then add the butter and knead into a smooth, soft dough (add up to 3 Tbsp more flour if too sticky).
Cover and let rise for about 1 hour, until doubled.
Divide the dough and roll each piece out into a flat oval. Place a cheese stick on the edge and roll it up into a log, sealing the seam.
Arrange the rolls on a lined baking sheet and brush with the egg wash.
Bake at 350F for 20 to 25 minutes, until golden.
Mix the powdered milk and sugar for the coating. While the rolls are still warm, roll each one in the powdered milk-sugar mixture to coat.
