Soft and warm, these homemade garlic cheese rolls combine cheese, garlic and herbs for a delicious side to any meal.
Sundays seem to be my day of choice for bread baking. After we go to church we stay home for the rest of the day. It truly is a day of rest from the busyness and cares of the rest of the week. One of my favorite things to do is spend some time in my kitchen making a big mess. You see, at our house, dad always does the dishes on Sunday so I like to take full advantage and cook up a storm.
I love to cook but I especially love to cook when I don’t have to clean up the mess. Some type of homemade bread or roll is usually part of the Sunday dinner menu and these garlic cheese rolls are so good they have been on repeat at our house.

How to Make Garlic Cheese Rolls
- Mix together yeast, sugar and warm water in a bowl. Allow to sit until bubbly.
- Add in salt, olive oil and egg into yeast mixture.
- Mix in flour until a loose and somewhat sticky dough is formed. It should pull away from the sides of the bowl.
- Cover with a towel and allow to rise until double in size. About 1 hour.
- After rising, turn dough onto a floured surface and roll out into a 10 x 12 rectangle.
- Brush with 1 1/2 Tbsp. melted butter.
- Add garlic, cheese, parsley and seasoning
- Roll up into a log, Seam side down.
- With a sharp knife cut into 8 pieces and place on a greased cookie sheet.
- Allow to rise for about 15 more minutes.
- Brush with remaining melted butter and sprinkle with more cheese.
- Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes or until golden brown on top and cooked through.
Tips from leigh Anne
- Be sure you’ve got plenty of flour on your counter to keep that dough from sticking when you go to roll it up.
- Switch up your seasoning and cheese. You can use fresh herbs or dry herbs. If using fresh herbs, use twice the amount called for in the recipe.
- Make smaller rolls by rolling your dough out larger and then cut them smaller.Â

Julie Spady says
I wish I had a counter like yours. My is tile so I always have a hard time rolling out large things. Any suggestions? Those rolls look SO yummy!
Leigh Anne says
Couple of options – you could buy a marble or granite slab that you could use. Also a large silpat would also work. I think they come in different sizes.
Dawn says
Silpat makes a “roll-pat”. That’s what I use on my tile. It works great. I think I got it at an actual DeMarle party, but I’m sure you could order it on-line.
