Halloween traditions

Wow!!! I cant believe it has been two years since my last post! Wow I am such a slacker!  I have had a few people asking for my Halloween recipes so I thought I would post it on my blog for you all.


      MUMMY CALZONES

2 loaves(one pound each) frozen bread dough, thawed
6 oz.  shredded mozzerella cheese
1/2 cup pizza sauce
50 slices pepperoni
1/2 cup chopped green pepper
1 egg, beaten lightly
1 pitted ripe olive, sliced and cut in half

*roll out each piece of dough into a rounded triangle shape, about 14-in. high by 11 in. wide at the base of the triangle. Place each on a parchment-lined baking sheet with the tip of the triangle toward you. Lightly score 4-in. wide rectangle in the center of the triangle 2-in. from the top and bottom.

*On each long side, cut 1-in. wide strips at an angle up to the score line, leaving a triangle in the top center of the wide end for the head.

*Inside the scored rectangle in the center layer the pizza sauce, cheese, pepperoni and green pepper. Shape the top center triangle into a head. Starting at the head fold alternating strips of dough at an angle across filling, stopping at the last strip on each side. fold the bottom dough tip up over the filling, than fold the remaining two strips over the top; press down firmly.

*Brush dough with egg. Cover and let rise for 15 min. For eyes, press 1 olive slice into each head.

*Bake at 350 for 25-28 min. or until golden brown. Let stand for 5 min. before slicing.

** You can put whatever you want inside the calzone. It doesn't really matter. I also add red onions, olives and mushrooms. Its super yummy.
