RISE

- Divide it into 12 segments and let dough rest for 10 minutes before handling it.
- Roll each dough into an oblong ghost shape, about 4" | 10 cm long. With a sharp knife or a pizza cutter, cut three 1" | 2.50 cm slits for the eyes and mouth. Lift the dough off of your work surface and gently pull and stretch to create your fun ghost faces.
- Place each ghost directly on your Bonmat at least 2" | 6 cm apart from each other. Cover with a clean kitchen cloth and let rise for 20 minutes.
BAKE!
