Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup warm water
1 1/2 tablespoons active dry yeast
1/3 cup plus 1 teaspoon granulated sugar (, divided)
1 cup lukewarm whole milk
1/4 cup unsalted butter (, softened)
1 teaspoon salt
1 large egg (, lightly beaten)
4 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour (, spooned and leveled)
8 ounces Velveeta processed cheese (, cut into 16 cubes)
1/4 cup unsalted butter (, melted)

Steps:

  • Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine water, yeast, and 1 teaspoon sugar. Stir to dissolve and set aside until foamy, 5-10 minutes.
  • Add milk, softened butter, salt, remaining 1/3 cup sugar, egg, and 2 cups of the flour. Mix until well combined, and then add remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until dough just starts to clear the sides of the bowl (you may not need it all.)
  • Transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead until a soft, elastic dough forms.
  • Transfer dough to a lightly oiled bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for about 15 minutes.
  • Turn the dough out into a rectangle and divide into 16 equal pieces. Shape pieces into rounds, then flatten slightly. Tuck a cube of cheese into the center of each round and pinch the dough around the cheese, tightly together at the bottom, working to shape each one into a round, tight ball.
  • Place rolls, pinched-side down on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise again in a warm place for about 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 375° F.
  • Brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter. Bake for 15 minutes, switching baking sheets halfway through baking time. Brush the tops with remaining butter and bake for 5 more minutes or until golden brown.
  • Remove from the oven and cool slightly before serving, but still hot enough that you get that awesome gooey cheese when you break them open!
  • NOTE: Do not substitute the Velveeta for real cheddar cheese. It won't melt properly and will make them greasy. For helpful tips refer to the full article and be sure to watch the video for visual help.

1 (8-ounce) tube crescent rolls
4 to 8 thin slices orange cheese (sliced cheddar, American cheese, or Velveeta)

Steps:

  • Repeat this process with the second dough rectangle.
  • Bake on a cookie sheet for 15 minutes until lightly browned.

Provided by Mrs_imUnLawson

Number Of Ingredients 8

To make 2 ½ pounds of dough:
2 cups warm water
1½ - 2 Tablespoons yeast
6 cups bread flour
¼ cup sugar
1 - 1 ½ teaspoons salt (depending on taste)
¼ cup butter

Steps:

  • Dissolve yeast in warm water. Add remaining ingredients and mix with dough hook about 10 minutes until the dough no longer sticks to the sides of the bowl. Dough should be soft and pliable. Let dough rest a few minutes then divide into 1-pound portions. Roll the portions into logs. Cut each log into 5 equal pieces. Load the cheese on top of each dough slice, then pull dough up from the sides to cover filling. Pinch closed very carefully. Place zombies pinched side down on parchment paper or a greased cookie sheet pan (parchment works best). Brush with egg wash. Let rise until almost doubled in size. Bake @350 degrees until brown on top, about 15 to 20 minutes. You know you are a true ZoMbiE mAkeR when you don't have a single "leaker" ;)

This is posted in response to a request. I had a hard time finding it as half the school calendars in the country have it listed as a menu item but not one offered a description of the dang things.

Categories     Breads

Time 1h7m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 2

32 ounces frozen bread dough
16 ounces cheddar cheese (or cheese of your choice, including blends)

Steps:

  • Thaw bread dough and divide in half. Using whatever means you feel is necessary, spread dough in a 13x18 inch jelly roll pan, or any pan with low sides.
  • Shred your cheese and reserve 4 ounces. Spread 12 ounces of cheese over bread dough. Roll second half of dough into a 13x18 inch square and place on top of the cheese. Press down the edges a bit to keep the top and the bottom the same size during baking.
  • Bake at 350° for 45 minutes Sprinkle remaining 4 ounces of cheese on the top of the bread and bake another 5 minutes
  • Let this cool for about 20 mins before cutting into 12 squares. Serve with soup or steamed veggies.
  • Variations: add fun things to the cheese in the middle like chopped red pepper, chopped mushrooms, sliced green onion, or chopped black olives. I do NOT recommend spinach as a potential add-in since it's so water-filled. I know, I know, so are mushrooms, but not as much.
