Cheese Pull-apart bread

'Cheese Pull-apart Bread',  as the name suggests is a bread which is stuffed with Mozzarella cheese and is eaten by pulling apart the cheese stuffed pieces. Very simple to prepare but loved by one and all due to the amazing aromas and flavours. This makes for a great starter and is always a hit at parties esp. with kids. Like most of my recipes the ingredients are few and the method really simple. Hope you enjoy making this as much as I enjoyed sharing it with you.
