Prepare the dough:

• In a large bowl, combine the warm milk, honey, melted butter, and egg. Mix well.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, instant yeast, and salt.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a soft dough forms.
• Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
• Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

Prepare the garlic filling:

• In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter, minced garlic, grated Parmesan, chopped parsley, salt, and red pepper flakes (if using) until well combined.

Assemble the rolls:

• Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release any air bubbles.
• Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle approximately 12×18 inches (30×45 cm).
• Evenly spread the garlic filling over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
• Starting from the long side, tightly roll the dough into a log.
• Using a sharp knife, cut the log into 12 equal pieces.
• Place the rolls, cut side up, into a greased 9×13-inch (23×33 cm) baking dish.
• Cover the dish with a kitchen towel and let the rolls rise for an additional 30 minutes.

Bake the rolls:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
• Bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and fragrant.

Prepare the topping:

• While the rolls are baking, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, and chopped parsley in a small bowl.

Finish and serve:

• As soon as the rolls come out of the oven, brush them generously with the garlic butter topping.
• Serve warm, and watch them disappear!
