TO PREPARE:

In large bowl combine 2-1/2 cups flour, sugar, salt and yeast.  Combine milk and margarine in saucepan.  Bring to a boil.  Cool to lukewarm.

Add to dry ingredients; beat until blended (may be done in mixer).  Add 1 cup flour, beat; add cheese and eggs.  Gradually add remaining flour; knead until smooth and elastic.

Put in greased bowl, turning to grease top.  Cover.  Let rise in warm place until double in bulk.
