Ingredients

  • 1 cup warm water
  • 2 1/4 teaspoon active dry yeast 1 packet
  • 2 Tbsp. white sugar
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 2 Tbsp. vegetable oil
  • 2 3/4 cup flour
  • 1 1/2 cup shredded cheese  (cheddar cheese or a mix of shredded cheeses)
  • 6 oz. sliced jalapeños chopped (from a jar)
  • 1/4 cup butter softened
  • 2 Tbsp. melted butter for brushing

Instructions

  • Let warm water, yeast and sugar proof in a bowl for 5-10 minutes, or until foamy.
  • Mix salt and oil into the yeast. Mix in flour one cup at a time.
    You can use a stand mixer with a dough hook or a Danish dough whisk to make the dough. I prefer these to using a wooden spoon.
  • Knead dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth.
  • Place in a well oiled bowl, and turn dough to coat. Cover with a damp cloth.
  • Allow to rise until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
  • Roll dough out to a 12"x18" rectangle. Spread with 1/4 cup softened butter.
    Sprinkle with shredded cheese and chopped jalapeno peppers.
  • Roll dough up tightly and pinch seams to secure. Slice into 12 sections (dental floss works great for this) and place in a greased 9x13" baking dish.
  • Lightly cover with a cloth or piece of plastic wrap and let sit in a warm place for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and bake rolls for 25 minutes or until tops are golden.
    Brush rolls with 2 Tbsp. of melted butter (optional).
