What You Need:

1 (1 lb.) loaf of frozen bread dough, thawed
3 pieces of string cheese
1 (16 oz.) container of sour cream
1 envelope of ranch dip mix
1 black olive

How to Make It:

The bread dough should rise according to the directions on the package.
Once the dough has risen roll is out to form a 12 inch oval shape with the bottom narrower than the top.
On both sides of the shape make an indention 1 inch from the top to form the mummies head.
Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray and place the dough onto the sheet.
Let the dough rise 20 minutes in a warm dry area.
Heat the oven to 350 degrees and bake the risen dough 22 minutes or until a golden brown.
Lay strips of the string cheese over the top of the warm bread to form the mummy wrap.
Put back in oven 2 minutes or until the cheese has melted.
Remove the bread to a wire rack to cool.
Blend the sour cream and ranch dip mix together in a mixing bowl.
Cover and place the mixture in refrigerator until ready to serve.
Cut the cooled dough in half horizontally and remove the bread in the middle leaving a 3/4 inch shell.
Lay the mummy bowl on a serving platter.
Fill the bowl with the chilled dip.
Place the top of the bread back on the mummy.
Place two slices from the olive on the head of the mummy for the eyes.
Cut or tear the reserved bread and serve with the dip along with vegetables or crackers.

Use this mummy as a centerpiece for your Halloween party table. Any type of ranch dressing mix can be used to make this scrumptious dip.
