Cheesy Herb Rolls

Makes 12

1 (16-ounce) package hot roll mix*
1½ teaspoons ground black pepper
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon whole milk, divided
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs, room temperature and divided
⅓ cup chopped fresh chives
¼ cup olive oil
3 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon garlic powder
¾ teaspoon kosher salt
⅛ teaspoon crushed red pepper
1¼ cups shredded fontina cheese, divided
Garnish: flaked sea salt, ground black pepper

1. In a large bowl, whisk together roll mix and included yeast packet and black pepper.

2. In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup milk and butter over medium heat until butter is melted and mixture registers 120° to 130° on an instant-read thermometer. Stir warm milk mixture into flour mixture just until combined. Add 1 egg; stir just until a dough forms. (Dough will be sticky.)

3. On a lightly floured surface, knead dough until smooth and elastic, 5 to 7 minutes, lightly sprinkling with flour as needed. Cover and let stand for 5 minutes.
