Witches Broomsticks

Cut bread dough into 8 equal pieces; roll each piece into 10-inch length.

Fold top 1/3 of dough down, leaving 3 inches at bottom.

Twist doubled top 2/3 portion to form broom handle. Cut bottom part into 5 or 6 lengthwise strips to form bristles of broom.

Place shaped dough pieces, about 2 inches apart on lightly greased baking sheet.

Beat together egg yolk and water; brush evenly onto dough.

Combine Parmesan cheese and oregano in small bowl; sprinkle evenly onto bottom portion of brooms.
