Instructions
2 teaspoons light brown sugar
1 package yeast
1/2 cup warm milk
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
7 tablespoons softened butter, divided
1 pound mild grated cheese (Monterey Jack or Cheddar)
2 eggs
Dissolve sugar and yeast in warm milk and let stand 5 minutes. Sift flour and salt. Add 4 tablespoons butter and yeast mixture. Mix ingredients and knead 8-10 minutes until dough is smooth and stretchy. Place dough in a bowl, brush top with butter, cover and let rise an hour. Punch down and let rise another 45 minutes. Combine cheese, 2 tablespoons butter and 1 egg. Beat until blended. Divide risen dough into 4 parts and roll each out. Place 1/4 of the cheese mixture on each portion of dough. Gather together edges to cover the cheese. Let rise 15 minutes. Separate the last egg, and mix yolk with 1 tablespoon butter. Brush bread loaves with the egg/butter mixture and place on rimmed baking sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
