CHEESE & BACON SOFT DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• Grease a 9 by 13 inch pan.
• Add rolls to pan, cover with sprayed plastic wrap, and put in the fridge overnight (or leave on counter for 3 hours) to thaw and rise. Note--if your rolls haven't risen but have thawed completely you can still move on to the next step.
• Gently press a nest into the rolls.
• Divide the bacon, cheese, and parsley amongst the 12 rolls and stuff them. Save a small amount of each for the top of the rolls.
• Gently pull the tops of the rolls together to close them as best you can.
• Pour the melted butter over the top of the rolls.
• Cover and let rise until double in size, about 45 minutes. --see notes in post about speeding this process, if needed.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• When risen, sprinkle the remaining cheese, bacon, and parsley over the top.
• Bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes or until deeply golden brown.

BACON AND CHEESE SOFT ROLLS

Steps:

• First we get the bread ready: Combine first 4 ingredients in the bowl of the mixer and wait 20 minutes. The mixture will become foamy.
• Then, using the hook attachment for the mixer add the remaining ingredients. Knead for 10 - 15 minutes
• Allow to rise in the bowl, covered with a cloth, in a draft-free place. (Do not place on oven top, just leave the bowl on your kitchen work top). About 30 - 45 minutes
• Whilst rising, make up the filling (fry off bacon & drain & grate cheese) and allow to cool.
• Once it has doubled, flour your hands very well and also the work top, and pull off pieces of the dough, slightly smaller than a tennis ball. Don't be frightened to add some flour if your dough is very sticky. It will be fine. Place your piece of dough on the work top and flatten as in the picture. Add a heaped teaspoon of filling in the center. Pull the dough from the sides to enclose the filling and squash the edges together so they are sealed, and reshape if necessary into a roll shape. Turn upside down (so the seal is on the bottom of the tray).
• Place the rolls apart from each other on a floured tin / tray. Allow to rise again on the cookie sheet, until the dough balls are touching (like in the picture). Rising will take about 30 - 45 minutes
• Carefully brush the tops of the rolls with milk and sprinkle some cheese over them
• Bake at 400 F / 200C / Gas 6 for 20-30 minutes (until golden brown).
• Eat warm or cold. I love them when they are still warm!

BACON ROLL UPS II

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Cut each slice of white bread in half horizontally. Spread with cream cheese. Tightly roll each piece of bread with half a piece of bacon. The bacon should be on the outside of the bread. Secure with toothpicks.
• Arrange roll ups in a single layer on a medium baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven 30 minutes, or until bacon is no longer pink and bread is lightly browned. Serve warm.
