Cheddar Chili Braid Recipe

Cheddar Chili Braid Recipe

  • 1 (16 ounce) package hot roll mix
  • 1 cup warm water (120 to 130 degrees F)
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons canned chopped green chiles, drained
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  1. In a bowl, combine contents of roll mix and yeast packet; stir in water, one egg, cheddar cheese and chilies. Turn onto a floured surface; knead dough until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Cover and let rest for 5 minutes.
  2. Divide into thirds. Shape each into a 14-in. rope. Place ropes on a greased baking sheet and braid; pinch ends to seal and tuck under. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes. Beat remaining egg; brush over dough. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake at 375 degrees F for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan to a wire rack.
