1. Activate the Yeast

• In a small bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast.
• Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.

2. Make the Dough

• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour and salt.
• Make a well in the center and add yeast mixture, melted butter, and egg.
• Mix until a dough forms, then knead on a floured surface for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

3. First Rise

• Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

4. Shape the Buns

• Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces.
• Flatten each piece, place a tablespoon of grated cheese in the center, and fold the dough around it to form a bun.

5. Second Rise

• Arrange the buns on a parchment-lined baking sheet, cover, and let them rise for 30 minutes.

6. Bake the Buns

• Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
• Brush the tops with milk or beaten egg for a golden finish.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes, until golden brown and the cheese is oozing out.

7. Serve and Enjoy

• Allow the buns to cool slightly before serving for the best melty texture.
• Enjoy them warm on their own or as a side to soups, salads, or main dishes.
