2 teaspoons dry yeast
1 teaspoon mahlep
Flour
Filling
200 gr. graded Feta cheese

- In a tall glass, mix warm milk, sugar and yeast and set aside for 15 minutes. Yeast should rise.
- Mix together butter, eggs, salt, yeast, and mahlep.
- Add in enough flour to get a soft dough. Let it rest for 15 minutes
- Prepare the filling by grading the feta, chop parsley and mix together
- Prepare the pan by lining with cooking paper
- Take a piece of dough (about the size of a small walnut) flatten in your palm. Put a spoonful of filling and shape like a ball. You can chose to make oval shape too.
- Continue until all the dough is done
- Place on a lined pan
- Preheat oven at 350
- Spread egg yolk and sprinkle sesame seeds on the cheese puffs
