1/4 cup butter, melted
Parmesan cheese
poppy seeds
1 pound lean ground beef
1 pound processed cheese, Mexican style
10-ounce can diced tomatoes with green chilies, undrained

Using the flat of your hand, roll the center part of a roll into a 6-inch rope leaving both ends large and rounded. With scissors, clip 1 1/2 inches into the center of each end. Separate and lay the cut sides flat on a large sprayed baking pan. They will look like bones. Brush well with melted butter and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and poppy seeds.

Cover with plastic wrap and let rise about 20-30 minutes. Remove wrap and bake at 350°F 15-20 minutes. Serve with Halloween Dip, if desired.

In a frying pan, brown ground beef until completely cooked. Drain and set aside. Cut cheese into 1-inch cubes and place in microwave safe bowl. Microwave until melted. Add tomatoes and green chilies and mix well. Combine cooked ground beef with cheese mixture and serve warm.

Flatten one roll into a 4×5-inch rectangle. Make 4 equal cuts into one end for fingers, cutting the thumb strip ¾ of the length of the dough and the finger strips ½ the length. Repeat steps for second hand making cuts opposite. Separate the fingers slightly. Pull the thumb strip off to the side and cut in half. Tuck the cut off piece under the palm and press into the dough.
