Activate Yeast: In a small bowl, combine the warm milk and sugar. Sprinkle the yeast over the top
and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
Prepare Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture, melted
butter, and egg. Mix until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 8-10
minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a
warm place for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
Prepare Cheese Mixture: In a medium bowl, combine the mozzarella, cheddar, Parmesan, minced
garlic, and chopped parsley.
Shape Dough: Punch down the dough and roll it out on a lightly floured surface into a large
rectangle. Sprinkle the cheese mixture evenly over the dough.
Assemble Bread: Cut the dough into strips and then cut the strips into squares. Stack the squares on
top of each other and place them in a greased loaf pan, arranging them so that they fill the pan.
Second Rise: Cover the loaf pan with a kitchen towel and let the dough rise again for about 30
minutes while you preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake: Brush the top of the dough with the melted butter. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35
minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
Serve: Allow the bread to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy it warm, pulling apart the pieces to share.
