Cheesy Chutney Pull-apart Rolls

Pull-apart rolls took the blogosphere by storm a while ago.I remember,Suhaina posted it and soon after so many bloggers,including me,tried it with a roaring success.Those rolls are so popular in my home that I've tried it with so many different variations(fillings mainly).Whenever I chance upon a pull-apart bread recipe,I immediately take note and this one was one such recipe.

Though I've tried many a bread recipes by now,baking bread still makes me nervous and anxious which ends in happiness when I smell the bread baking in the oven.

The dough is an enriched one,with the addition of milk and butter and the resultant rolls are super soft and melt in the mouth.The original recipe called for a spiced cheese spread and since the one I had was plain I had this idea of adding my Mint chutney to it and hence the name cheesy chutney pull-apart rolls.This tasted almost like my mint chutney sandwiches but these were definitely tastier.

P.S- As I was writing the post,I realized that I had missed to add one main ingredient ie Sugar,was wondering how I missed it.But the rolls were delicious and the texture was also spot on :) so no complaints!
