Step‑by‑Step Instructions

Preheat your oven according to the instructions on the pizza dough package, typically around 425°F (220°C).
Roll out the refrigerated pizza dough on a floured surface and slice into triangle shapes.
Arrange the triangle pieces to form a tree shape on the baking sheet, layering shredded cheese in the center.
Gently fold each triangle over the cheese, pressing down lightly to seal the edges.
Melt the butter, mix in minced garlic and Italian herbs, and brush generously on the dough.
Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the dough.
Bake the Cheesy Christmas Tree Bread according to package instructions, typically around 12-15 minutes.
Let it cool slightly, then serve warm with dipping sauces.
