PARMESAN CHEESE BREAD

Do you love the smell of bread baking? I do. This bread is wonderful. It makes great toast and smells so good while in the toaster. It also makes great sandwiches. I always use Parmesan cheese but grated cheddar could be used.

Ingredients

1 cup milk (scalded)
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon butter
1 cup warm water
2 (1/4 ounce) packages dry yeast
1 cup grated parmesan cheese
4 1/2 cups flour

Steps:

Mix the milk, sugar, salt, and margarine together.
In a small bowl mix the warm water (115 degrees) and the yeast; mix well; proof for a few minutes.
Add the yeast mixture to the above milk mixture.
Add the cheese.
Add the flour to the right consistency.

Put in a greased bowl and rise in a warm place till double in bulk--about 1 hour.
Knead again for about 1/2 minute.
Put into 2 small greased bread pans.
Bake at 375 degrees for 1 hour being careful not to burn it; if it starts to look too brown, cover it with foil and continue baking.
