TRIM THE TREE PULL-APART BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a bowl combine cream cheese, shredded cheese and minced garlic, until well mixed. Season well with salt and pepper.
• Unroll the pizza crust and press it flat. Cut into 36 equal size squares.
• Place a small teaspoon of the cheese mixture on each square. Pull up corners and pinch to seal, rolling the dough into a ball shape.
• Place on the baking sheet in rows: 8 at the bottom, then 7, then 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 to form a tree shape.
• Combine butter and basil in a small bowl. Brush half this mixture over the dough balls and bake for about 15 minutes until nicely browned. Immediately brush with the remaining butter mixture (rewarm if necessary).
• Carefully slide to a serving tray and serve with a side of marinara sauce for dipping.

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!

CHRISTMAS TREE PULL-APART BREAD

Steps:

• Dough: In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine yeast, 2 tablespoons warm water (110 degrees), and pinch of sugar. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
• Add butter, milk, salt, remaining 4 1/2 teaspoons sugar, and eggs; stir to combine. Attach bowl to mixer fitted with dough-hook attachment. Slowly add flour and mix on low speed until mixture just comes together. Increase speed to medium-high; beat until dough is soft and elastic, about 7 minutes.
• Lightly brush a large bowl with butter. Place dough in bowl; cover with plastic wrap. Place in a warm, draft-free place and let rise until dough doubles in size, about 1 hour (or refrigerate overnight; bring to room temperature before baking).
• Filling: Combine butter, garlic, parsley, chives, and salt in a small bowl. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Stretch into a 7-by-15-inch rectangle. Spread herb-butter mixture evenly over dough. Using a pizza wheel or a sharp knife, cut dough crosswise into 1/2-inch-wide strips. Roll each strip into a spiral and tuck end underneath. Arrange in the shape of a tree on prepared sheet, forming two rows of five, two rows of four, two rows of three, one row of two, and one row of one. Sprinkle evenly with Parmesan. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise until dough is puffy and soft, about 20 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bake until lightly browned, 22 to 25 minutes. Decorate with peppers, mozzarella pearls, and sage and rosemary sprigs.
