Instructions

1. In a large bowl, mix the flour, sugar, yeast and salt, then add the lukewarm milk, egg and softened butter.
2. Knead for 10 minutes until you get a soft, smooth dough, then let it rise covered for 1 hour until doubled in volume.
3. Punch the dough down and divide it into 12 equal portions that you shape into balls.
4. Flatten each ball, place a spoonful of ham and cheese in the center, then close the dough by pinching the edges.
5. Arrange the rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment, cover and let rise another 30 minutes.
