Cheese Bread
This soft, milk-rich bread is stuffed with a smooth cream cheese filling and generously dusted with milk powder and powdered sugar.
Story
The aroma of freshly baked bread fills the kitchen as the loaves cool, ready to be sliced and filled. A rich cream cheese mixture is tucked into the cuts, creating a creamy contrast to the tender crumb. Dipping the cut sides into a sweet milk powder coating adds a delightful finish, making each bite soft, fragrant, and satisfying.
