Blue Cheese Swirl Bread Recipes

BEST BLUE CHEESE BREAD......MMMMMMMMMMM!!

Steps:

• Melt butter or margarine in pan; add blue cheese.
• Stir until blue cheese is melted and smooth.
• Take each dinner roll, and cut it into 6 pieces.
• Oil an 8x8-inch (or similar size) pan or glass baking dish (glass baking dish is preferred).
• Pour butter/blue cheese mixture into the baking dish.
• Place the cut up pieces of dough into the baking dish, on top of the blue cheese/butter mixture, crowding the pieces so that they touch.
• Bake according to packaged roll directions, usually 13-17 minutes, on about 350°-375°, or until golden brown on underside of pan (that is why it is good to use a glass dish, so you can lift it up to see if the underside is baked enough).
• When done, invert baking dish and the easy blue cheesy bread should drop out easily--so that what was the "bottom" in the baking dish becomes the "top"--serve immediately.
• While it is still hot, sprinkle with parmesan cheese and serve (optional).
• This is basically "pull apart finger food" and is absolutely delicious!

CHEESE SWIRL BREAD RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the roux: In a small saucepan, whisk together the bread flour and milk. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon to prevent the mixture from burning, until it begins to thicken into a paste and creates streaks across the bottom of the pot, about 5 minutes. Transfer the roux to a medium bowl and cover with plastic wrap, pressing directly against the surface. Let cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
• Make the dough: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, kosher salt, and yeast.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, milk powder, 1 egg, and the roux.
• Using a wooden spoon, stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until the dough begins to come together in shaggy mass. Add the butter and knead with your hands until the dough is smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.
• Shape the dough into a ball. Place in a large bowl greased with nonstick spray and cover loosely with plastic wrap. Let proof until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with nonstick spray.
• Punch down the dough, then turn out onto a floured surface. Roll the dough into a 9x9-inch square.
• Sprinkle the Cabot Vermont Sharp Cheddar Cheese and Cabot New York Extra Sharp Cheddar Cheese evenly across the dough. Starting from a long end, roll the dough up, and place seam-side down on the surface. Using a sharp knife, slice the roll in half lengthwise to expose the filling. Twist the halves together into a braid.
• Place the loaf in the prepared pan and cover loosely with plastic wrap. Let proof until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Beat the remaining egg, then brush over the loaf. Sprinkle the sea salt on top.
• Bake the bread until the cheese is bubbly and the top is deep golden brown, about 30 minutes. Let cool slightly, about 15 minutes, then slice.
• Enjoy!

BLUE CHEESE BREAD

• Blend cheese and butter in processor until smooth. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Bring to room temperature before using.)
• Preheat broiler. Broil bread crust side up until crisp. Turn and broil cut side until light brown. Spread cheese mixture over cut side of bread. Sprinkle liberally with pepper. Broil until cheese bubbles and begins to brown. Remove from broiler and sprinkle bread with celery. Cut crosswise into 1-inch pieces.

BLUE CHEESE SWIRL BREAD

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, heat the milk and butter over medium until the butter is melted. Add the cool water and stir to combine. The mixture should feel just warm to the touch (about 95 degrees). If needed, let cool before using.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment, combine the flour, yeast, salt and milk mixture on low speed, 3 minutes. Increase the speed to medium and continue to mix until smooth, another 3 minutes.
• Transfer the dough to a lightly greased medium bowl and cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Let rise for 1 hour in a warm place. Generously grease a 10-inch cast-iron or oven-safe skillet with about 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a log about 22 inches long and 1 1/4 inches in diameter. Press the crumbled blue cheese into the log in a long stripe down the middle.
• Starting at one end, roll the log into a spiral (the blue cheese should mostly be folded inside the spiral). Place the dough into the prepared skillet. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until noticeably puffy, 35 to 45 minutes.
• Position a rack in the middle of the oven and one below. Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Uncover the dough, and brush the surface with heavy cream.
• Place a baking sheet on the lower rack of the oven to catch any cheese that may bubble over. Bake the bread on the middle rack until the bread is golden-brown, 30 to 35 minutes. (It should have an internal temperature of 195 degrees in the thickest part of the loaf.)
• Let cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
