Time 1h30m

Yield 1 large pan, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 active dry yeast
2 1/4 cups warm water (110 degrees)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup instant non-fat powdered milk
6 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/4 lbs American cheese or 1 1/4 lbs Velveeta cheese
1 little butter (brush on after baking - see note)

Steps:

  • n a large mixing bowl, mix yeast with water, let sit five minutes until it begins to get bubbly. Add the sugar, oil and powdered milk and mix on low with a paddle attachment.
  • Change to a dough hook and add the flour and salt and knead about 8 minutes until dough is smooth and elastic.
  • Divide into 2 equal parts, form each into a ball. Place each in a bowl sprayed with cooking spray or coated with oil, smooth side down, turning the smooth side back up (so it is covered with a light coating of the oil). Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let rise in warm place for an hour or so until doubled in size. When risen, save the plastic wrap to cover the tray of Zombies while it rises.
  • On a lightly sprayed or oiled half sheet pan (17 x 12 x 1), stretch one ball of dough evenly to the edges and slightly above. Top with sliced cheese and any other filling if using. Take the second ball and stretch it out on a counter next to the tray so it is a rectangle several inches smaller than the tray.
  • Pick it up (it will hopefully just stretch to about the size of the tray as you do so) and place over the top of the cheese. Gently, trying not to disturb the cheese, stretch and pinch the edges of the top layer to the bottom, sealing well.
  • Cover lightly with plastic wrap and let rest until doubled in size, about 30 minutes to an hour. Bake 18-20 minutes at 400 degrees until the top is golden brown, rotating the tray about 3/4's way through.
  • Remove from oven and brush with butter, let cool several minutes, slice and serve.
  • NOTES:.
  • Butter - the easiest way to brush with butter is to open a stick of cold butter and rub the end across the top of the hot dough.
  • This seems like a lot of cheese, but don't skimp or they're really not as good.
  • All kinds of add-ins or changeups can be made to the original filling. Just be sure to use a good melty cheese.
  • Zombies may be reheated in the microwave. Wrap in a napkin or paper towel, heat on 70 percent power for one minute, then turn and cook on high for 30 seconds.
  • Zombies may be frozen, then wrapped, for later. Reheat from frozen, as above, on 70 percent power for one minute, then turn and cook on high for 45 seconds.

4 to 8 thin slices orange cheese (sliced cheddar, American cheese, or Velveeta)

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.

  • Cover one side of each rectangle with your desired amount of cheese slices.
  • Fold the other side of the rectangle over the cheese to form a smaller, enclosed rectangle.
  • Gently pull the edges of the top layer of dough over the sides of the rectangle, pinching the edges to seal the dough into a pocket that the cheese is enclosed in.
  • Repeat this process with the second dough rectangle.
  • Bake on a cookie sheet for 15 minutes until lightly browned.
  • Slice in half and serve immediately.
  • Enjoy.

CHEESE ZOMBIES

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.

Time 20m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 quart oil for frying
4 teaspoons mayonnaise
4 slices white bread
4 slices Cheddar cheese
1 cup milk
2 eggs
2 cups dry bread crumbs

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer to 365 degrees F (180 degrees C).
  • Spread one teaspoon of mayonnaise onto each slice of bread. Place 2 pieces of cheese onto one slice of bread, then top with the other side of bread. The mayonnaise should be on the inside. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Place the bread crumbs into another dish. Dip each sandwich into the egg mixture, then coat with bread crumbs.
  • One at a time, immerse the sandwiches in the preheated oil. Fry until the cheese is melted, and the crust is golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Repeat with the other sandwich. Place on paper towel to absorb excess oil before serving.

Tips:

  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different cheeses. A sharp cheddar, a creamy brie, or a tangy goat cheese would all be delicious in a zombie sandwich.
  • If you don't have any leftover mashed potatoes, you can make a quick batch by boiling some potatoes and mashing them with butter, milk, and salt and pepper.
  • To make the sandwiches ahead of time, assemble them and then wrap them tightly in plastic wrap. Store them in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before grilling.
  • Serve the sandwiches with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ketchup, mustard, or barbecue sauce.

Conclusion:

The cheese zombie sandwich is a fun and easy way to use up leftover mashed potatoes. It's a hearty and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious sandwich that's perfect for lunch, dinner, or a midnight snack. So next time you have some leftover mashed potatoes, don't throw them away!
