Old School Lunch Recipe?

Question

Does anyone know the recipe or where I can the recipe for cheese zombies? It is cheese baked in bread, kind of like grilled cheese but so much better. Thanks for the help!

Answer 1

Cheese Zombies

1 (1 lb. loaf) frozen white or wheat bread dough

6 oz. processed American or Cheddar cheese

Thaw loaf of bread dough. Allow dough to rise. Divide dough into six pieces. Cut cheese into six cubes. Wrap dough around cube of cheese. Form dough into ball, making sure that cheese is in the center and entirely covered. Pinch dough edges together to seal. Allow to rise again for about one hour. Bake in 350 degree oven 25 minutes or until bread is browned. One loaf makes six zombies.

Note: If you are using cheddar cheese, it will melt more evenly if coarsely grated.

**Iuse shredded cheddar or a combination of cheddar/jack cheeses.

Directions

1. Combine 1 ounce of baker's yeast with 3 cups of warm water.

2. Place 2 pounds, 8 ounces of white flour, 2 ounces of sugar, 1 tablespoon of salt and 2 ounces of vegetable shortening in a mixing bowl. (Add a "scant" of garlic in the mixture to hold edges of dough to bun pan.)

3. Add yeast and water to the mixing bowl. Beat for about 10 minutes or until the dough is of one consistency.

4. Weigh dough into 2 pound, 2 ounce hunks and let rise until the hunk about doubles in size.

5. Roll one hunk evenly into a bun pan.

6. Top with 8 slices of Cheddar cheese cut long way from the brick. (Place cheese no less than 1/4-inch from edge.)

7. Roll out another hunk of dough to almost the size of the bun pan. Place this over the cheese and press down the edges. Let rise.

8. Bake at 425 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Let sit and cool. Brush top of sheet with melted butter or margarine. Cut sheet 6 by 4 inches.
