In a medium bowl, mix 1 cup flour, sugar, dry ranch mix, yeast, and salt.
In microwaveable bowl or measuring cup, heat milk and butter until warm to the touch, but not hot. Microwave in 15 second increments. If using a thermometer, temperature should be between 105 and 115°. Butter does not need to be fully melted.
Pour the milk mixture into bowl with dry ingredients and stir. Add 1/4 cup flour and shredded cheese. Continue stirring. Add in remaining flour in batches. Once all ingredients are combined and dough forms into ball, place on lightly floured surface.
Knead dough 6 - 8 minutes, adding flour as needed to prevent sticking. Dough should be smooth and springy. Shape into a ball and cover with plastic wrap or damp towel for 10 minutes to rest.
Cut dough into 12 evenly sized pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and place in a greased baking dish. Rolls should be close together or slightly touching. Cover with plastic wrap or damp towel to rise (approx. 30 minutes). See blog for tips on rising.
Bake in 375° preheated oven for 20 - 25 minutes or until golden brown.
Cool slightly and brush tops with melted butter. Enjoy!
