In a large bowl, combine 250 g of all-purpose flour with 0.5 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of sugar.
Add 100 ml of warm water and 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the flour mixture and knead to form a smooth dough. Let it rest for 15 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 220°C.
In a separate bowl, mix together 200 g of aged cheddar cheese and 200 g of brie cheese, both grated.
Divide the dough into two equal portions. Roll each portion into an oval shape.
Place half of the cheese mixture in the center of each dough oval and fold the edges over, forming a boat shape.
Transfer the filled dough boats onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 15 minutes.
Remove from the oven and make a small well in the center of the cheese. Crack 1 egg yolk into each well.
Return to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the egg yolk is slightly set.
Remove from the oven, and while still hot, place 1 tablespoon of butter on each Khachapuri. Serve immediately.
