    Cut remaining dough into one 4-inch by 1/4-inch strip and four 1-inch 1/4-inch strips for the laces.
    Brush egg over top and outside of football bowl and bake until just starting to brown (about 10 minutes). Save a little bit of the egg wash to brush on laces as well.

     

    STEP 4

    Meanwhile, to make the filling, combine kale, artichoke, cheeses, milk, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, cayenne and salt and heat over medium-low heat, stirring until bubbly and melted.

     

    STEP 5

    Pour filling into center of football, top with egg-washed laces and continue baking until bubbly and golden brown, about 15 minutes.
