For the Dough

Step-by-Step Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine warm milk and sugar. Sprinkle active dry yeast on top and let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy.
  • Stir in melted unsalted butter and salt into the yeast mixture. Gradually add all-purpose flour, mixing until a soft dough forms.
  • Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl and cover with a damp cloth.
  • Let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Punch down the dough, divide it into 12 equal pieces, and shape each into a ball on a baking sheet.
  • Make a hole in the center of each ball and fill it with garlic butter.
  • Cover the filled rolls again with a cloth and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
  • Brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic powder.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
  • Cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
