Zany Zombies Recipes

CHEESE ZOMBIES

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.

ZOMBIE

Steps:

• Combine 2 1/2 ounces pineapple juice, 1 1/2 ounces orange juice, 1 ounce each white rum, gold rum and lemon juice, 1/2 ounce each lime juice and Velvet Falernum and 1/4 ounce grenadine in a shaker with ice; shake well. Strain into a tall glass filled with crushed ice. Garnish with a mint sprig.

ZANY ZOMBIES

Steps:

• Prepare cake mix according to package directions. Pour batter into greased and lined 13"x9" pan. Bake 30 minutes, or until inserted toothpick comes out clean; let cool 15 minutes. Invert onto cooling rack; let cool completely. Trim cake to level. Halve cake horizontally.
• Coat 1 cake layer with preserves; top with remaining layer. Using 3" oval cookie cutter, cut out 16 cakes; place on rack set in baking sheet.
• Reserve 1 tablespoon frosting. Stir food coloring into remaining frosting to make grayish swirls; pour over cakes. Chill 10 minutes. Using reserved frosting, attach remaining ingredients to form features. Place zombies on chocolate leaves, if desired.
