Put 2 cups of all-purpose flour in a bowl.

Add 2 tablespoons of sugar and 1 teaspoon of salt to the flour and mix.

In another bowl, combine 3/4 cup of warm water with 2 1/4 teaspoons of instant yeast and 1 tablespoon of sugar; let it foam.

Combine the yeast mixture with the flour mixture and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil; mix until combined.

Knead the dough on a floured surface for a few minutes until it is smooth and elastic.

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it, and let it rise until doubled in size.

Prepare the garlic butter mixture by mixing 3 cloves of minced garlic with 2 tablespoons of melted butter and 2 tablespoons of parsley.

Roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thick.

Spread the garlic butter mixture over the dough, then sprinkle with 1 cup of mozzarella cheese and 1/4 cup of parmesan cheese.

Roll the dough tightly into a log and pinch the seam to seal.

Slice the log into pieces and place them in a greased baking dish.

Let the rolls rise for another 30 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Bake the rolls for about 40 minutes until golden brown.
