Roast Garlic:

Make Garlic Butter:
Mix roasted garlic with softened butter, parsley, and 2 tbsp garlic oil. Set aside.

Combine warm milk, yeast, and honey. Let sit for 10 minutes until foamy.
Make Dough:
In a bowl, mix all-purpose flour, bread flour, sugar, milk powder, butter, salt, egg yolks, and yeast mixture.
Knead Dough:
Knead with a dough hook on medium speed for 15–20 minutes until smooth.
First Proof:
Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour 30 minutes or until doubled.
Assemble Rolls:
Roll dough into a rectangle about 1/8 inch thick. Spread garlic butter and sprinkle with mozzarella.
Roll and Cut:
Roll tightly into a log and cut into 6 even pieces.
Second Proof:
Place rolls on a baking tray, cover, and proof for 30 minutes until puffy.
Bake:
Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F). Brush with egg wash and bake for 20–25 minutes.
Finish:
Brush with leftover garlic butter and sprinkle with fresh parsley. Serve warm.
You can prep the garlic butter in advance and store it in the fridge.
For a spicier version, add a pinch of chili flakes to the garlic butter.
Use pre-shredded mozzarella for convenience, or fresh for a cheesier pull.
