Line a baking sheet tray with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
Punch down the dough. Turn the dough out onto a clean work surface (the dough should be oily enough to not need to flour the surface). Stretch or roll out the dough into a rectangle measuring about 12" x 18".
Sprinkle about half of the sugar onto the center third of the dough, followed by about half of the grated cheddar cheese.
Fold over one side of the dough to cover the sugar and cheese.
Sprinkle the remaining sugar and grated cheedar cheese on top of the folded over dough.
Fold over the last third of the dough to cover the sugar and cheese.
Cut the dough into 6 equal pieces.
With each piece, make 2 long cuts along the length of the dough to divide the piece into 3 equal strands, leaving the strands connected at one end.
Braid the strands using the typical braiding method.
Starting at the connected end of the strands, roll along the length of the strands to form a ball. If any cheese has fallen out, you can just place the pieces on the surface of the dough ball.
Place the dough balls on the lined baking sheet tray. Loosely cover the sheet tray and let the dough rise until about puffy (about 1 hour).
