CHRISTMAS TREE PULL-APART BREAD RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Flip a baking sheet upside down and place a piece of parchment paper on top. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and Club House ranch dip seasoning. Stir until well mixed. Fold in the spinach. Set aside.
• Roll out the tube of pizza dough on a piece of parchment paper set on a flat surface. Using a pizza cutter or knife, cut from a bottom corner to the center of the top. Repeat on the other side so you have 1 full triangle and 2 halves of a triangle on either side.
• Transfer both side-triangle pieces to the prepared baking sheet. Pinch the middle seam to seal and stretch the dough to form a single triangle.
• Spread the spinach dip over a side of the triangle.
• Spread the pesto over the other side of the triangle.
• Flip the remaining dough triangle on top of the filling and remove the parchment from the top. Stretch the dough to cover completely.
• Using a pizza cutter or knife, make horizontal slices about 1 inch apart from the top to bottom, leaving the middle "trunk" of the tree intact.
• Pull the strips outwards and twist.
• In a small bowl, mix the melted butter and garlic and brush over the tree.
• Sprinkle with the Club House Italian herbs and shredded Parmesan cheese.
• Bake the tree for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and the cheese has melted.
• Serve with marinara sauce.
• Enjoy!
