Instructions

  1. Heat milk and butter to 120°F Combine half of flour, yeast, sugar, salt, milk and butter mixture, cheese, and garlic powder in a large bowl.
  2. Knead with a mixer fitted with a dough hook at highest speed for 3 minutes.
  3. Add the rest of the flour and continue kneading for 3 more minutes.
  4. If the dough seems too sticky, slowly add more flour until the stickiness is corrected.
  5. Place dough in a greased bowl, and spray the top of the dough with cooking spray.
  6. Cover and let rise for one hour.
  7. Punch the dough down and let it rest for 10 minutes.
  8. Divide dough in half and form one loaf each in two greased 9 x 5 inch standard loaf pans.
  9. Cover the pans with plastic wrap and allow dough to rise for 45-60 minutes.
  10. Preheat oven to 375°F Bake loaves for 10 minutes; then turn oven down to 350F and bake for 30-35 minutes longer, until the breads are browned.
  11. Cool in the pans for 5-10 minutes; turn out onto a wire rack and allow to cool for a minimum of 5-10 more minutes so the bread firms up enough to be cut.
