to a 3" circle. Place cheese piece on center of each circle.
Wrap dough around cheese, pressing edges of dough to seal.
Place rolls, seam side down, in greased pan. Cover loosely with
greased plastic wrap and cloth towel. Let rise in warm place
for 30 minutes or until doubled in size. Heat oven to 375
degrees. Uncover dough. In small bowl, beat egg white and milk
until well blended. Brush over rolls. Sprinkle with Parmesan
cheese. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes or until golden brown. Serve
warm.
