A blend of herbs and a special shape dress up ordinary frozen bread dough in my unbelievably easy recipe. —Deb Stapert, Comstock Park, Michigan

Ingredients

1/4 cup butter, softened
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon each dried basil, marjoram and oregano
1 loaf (1 pound) frozen bread dough, thawed
3/4 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1 large egg
1 tablespoon water
4 teaspoons sesame seeds

Directions

In a small bowl, combine butter and seasonings. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a 12-in. square. Spread with butter mixture to within 1/2 in. of edges; sprinkle with cheese.
Fold dough into thirds. Cut widthwise into 24 strips. Twist each strip twice; pinch ends to seal. Place 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 40 minutes.
Beat egg and water; brush over dough. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake at 375° until light golden brown, 10-12 minutes. Remove from pans to wire racks.

Very good. Instead of garlic salt, I added a minced clove of garlic and some kosher salt. You could leave out the cheese. Cut strips with a pizza cutter.

I couldn't find any frozen bread dough and used French Bread in a tube. NOT a good substitute and they came out hard, tasteless and dry. I also over-cooked them, but the French Bread was not a good substitute. Too bad cause they look yummy.

This was so good, I'd give it 6 stars if I could! The spice combination is delicious, and these rolls come out of the oven looking like they came from a gourmet Italian restaurant.I made a few minor adjustments: Instead of 1/4 cup butter, I only used 2 Tbsp, while leaving the spice amounts as written. I thought 2 Tbsp worked fine, and the taste was still great! Also, in addition to the 3/4 cup mozzarella, I sprinkled in some grated Parmesan cheese because my family loves the taste.Soft, doughy, and cheesy, these are rolls I will definitely make again and again!
