Korean Cheese Garlic Bread is made of a small pull-apart milk bread bowl stuffed with sweet cream cheese and crisped in the oven in a garlic butter parsley sauce.

Prepare Garlic Butter mixture :

• Eggs 2
• Full Cream Milk ¾ Cup (room temperature)
• Garlic chopped 1 & ½ tbs
• Dried parsley 1 tbs
• Butter melted 100g

Cream Cheese Filling:

• Cream Cheese 200gm
• Mayonise 100gm
• Caster sugar 2tbs
• Breadcrumbs

Method:

• In a bowl mix eggs, full cream milk, garlic chopped, dried parsley, melted butter and caster sugar and set aside.
• Now in a cup add instant yeast, caster sugar, milk, and hot water, & mix well; cover & let it proof for 5 minutes & set aside.
• In the flour kneading machine, add all-purpose flour, caster sugar, baking powder, salt, and milk powder & mix well to combine.
• Add egg, butter, and yeast mixture & knead well.
• Now switch to dough hook attachment & knead until a smooth dough is formed (18-20 minutes).
• Grease dough with melted butter, cover with cling wrap & let it proof for 1 hour (warm place).
• Once the dough has doubled, punch it down and knead again to a soft dough, take a small dough (115g) and make a ball, spread evenly, tuck & roll each piece of dough into a smooth, tight ball.
• Place the buns on a baking tray lined with butter paper, cover with kitchen cloth & let it proof for 30 minutes or until double in size.
• Apply milk with the help of a brush on top of the buns & bake in preheated oven at 180 C for 22 minutes (on the lower grill).
• Take it out of the oven & let them cool for 15 minutes.

Cream Cheese filling:

• In a bowl, add cream cheese, mayonnaise, and caster sugar & whisk until well combined, then transfer to a piping bag & refrigerate until use.
• When the bread is cool enough to handle, cut each bread into 6 equal wedges (make sure to not completely cut through the bread and stay intact).
• After the bread has been cut, pipe a rope of cream cheese filling in between each wedge and dip the entire bread into the prepared garlic-butter mixture. Repeat with all the bread (makes 7) and arrange them on a baking tray lined with butter paper.
• Sprinkle breadcrumbs on each piece of bread & bake in preheated oven at 180C for 10 minutes or until golden brown (on the upper grill).
