Monster Bread
2 pounds frozen bread dough, thawed
1 tablespoon sugar
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
raisins
marshmallows
licorice
fruit leather
Melt butter. Shape dough into a disc. Cut horizontally almost all the way
through, leaving about 1/4" uncut along one side. Open, brush with half the
butter and sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon. Close and press edges together.
Roll into l0" circle. Put on a baking sheet, cover and let rise about 30
minutes. Use scissors to cut holes for a mouth and eyes. Push foil into holes to
keep them open. Cut deep gashes into top of head for spiky hair. Press raisins
into dough to make eye brows. Brush with remaining butter. Bake until bread
sounds hollow when tapped, about 40 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking
until lightly browned, about 5 minutes.Decorate with candy while bread is still
warm. The spiky hair is the licorice of course, the marshmallows are the eyes,
with some type of red candy on top so actually the marshmallows are the white of
the eyes; the fruit leather is used for the tongue and ears.
