CHEESE BREAD 1 c. milk 1/4 c. honey 1/4 c. warm water 1 1/2 tsp. salt 4 c. white flour 1 Tbsp. sweet butter 1 Tbsp. dry yeast 1/2 tsp. sugar or honey 1 egg 2 c. Cheddar cheese, grated Scald the milk in small saucepan. Add butter and honey and let sit until lukewarm. In a large mixing bowl dissolve yeast in the warm water with 1/2 teaspoon sugar or honey. Wait until frothy and add the lukewarm milk to the yeast along with the salt and egg. Beat all together. Add 1 1/2 cups of flour and beat 2 minutes with an electric mixer or at least 200 strokes by hand. Mix in cheese and gradually add more flour until the dough leaves the sides of the bowl and is stiff enough to knead. Turn dough out onto floured board and knead until smooth and elastic, sprinkling with a little more flour if it remains sticky. Put the dough in a buttered bowl. Turn it over or brush the top with melted butter. Cover with a towel and let rise until double. Punch down and if you have time, let it rise again. Grease your pan very well. Place in cold oven and turn to 350 degrees. Bake 40 to 45 minutes and then take bread out of pan and directly on oven rack for a final 5 minutes. This bread is better if it sits a while before it's eaten. It makes fantastic toast.
