Asiago Cheese Garlic Rolls

Sometimes food just sticks to us, and when we get cravings we would do anything to fulfill that need. How about making something from scratch solely based on memory? 

Ok, so here is my story, about three years ago I ate the most amazing garlic roll that I have ever tasted in my life. But the restaurant disappeared and it left a craving void in my stomach.  Since I started this cooking journey, I knew that this recipe was a must do. 

Things you need:

• Pizza dough 
• 1/2 a Garlic Minced
• 1/2 cup of Butter (room temperature)
• 2 tbsp Italian Seasoning
• 2 tsp Garlic and Parsley seasoning
• 1 tsp Onion Powder
• 1-2 pinhes of Red Crushed Pepper
• 1 block of Asiago Cheese (shredded)
• Flour (a handful)

1. Pre heat oven to 375° F
2. Let start by making the garlic sauce. Add the minced garlic, 1/2 a cup of butter, 2 tablespoons of Italian Seasoning, 2 teaspoons of garlic and parsley seasoning, 1 teaspoon of onion powder, 1 pinch of the red crushed pepper and in the mix you will add 1/3 of a cup of the asiago cheese and mix until all ingredients are completely mixed together. Once this is done set it to the side to prepare the dough.                                                                                                            *Warning, be very careful poring the crushed pepper. A little too much will make the garlic roll extremely spicy. 
3. Now to prepare the pizza dough: You will need aluminum foil spread across the counter to avoid a huge mess. I bought the dough already prepared from Publix, but feel free to make your own. Grab a hand full of flour and pour it on the aluminum foil and the dough to avoid from sticking all over the place. Don't go over board with the flour, but pour just enough that the dough is no longer too sticky, and it's easier to work with. Roll out the dough until it is rounded out. Always remember the knead the dough so that it allows it to stretch.
4. Once you kneaded and rolled out the dough, now you are ready to spread the garlic butter on the dough. Spread the garlic butter evenly. If you are a cheese lover like me, you would need to add LOTS MORE CHEESE over the garlic butter. 

     5. Now its time to cut the dough horizontally and rolling it onto a pan. Make sure that you pour just
        a little bit (1/2 a teaspoon) of olive oil to prevent the bread from sticking and burning underneath.
        Use a paper towel to spread the olive oil over the whole pan. Once you placed all the rolls on the  
        pan, splat just a little more olive oil over the rolls to keep them moist as they bake. If you like, add
        more of the asiago cheese over the bread.
    6. Bake for 25 minutes, or until golden.

    7. Tada!!! This is what your delicious treats should look like. Allow to sit for a couple of minutes to     

        cool down. Enjoy!

I hope you will enjoy this recipe as much as I did. It is one of my favorites so far! I can definitely say that is Satisfied my NomNom.. Hehe.
