Cheesy Garlic Pull-Apart Christmas Tree

Step 1

Preheat oven to 450°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Cut mozzarella sticks into 1” pieces and set aside.

Step 3

On a floured surface, divide pizza dough into two pieces. Stretch and roll each piece of dough into a long rectangle, then cut dough into 2” squares (you’ll need 33 total).

Step 4

Wrap a dough square around each piece of mozzarella, forming a tightly sealed ball. Place balls seam-side down on the baking sheet in the shape of a Christmas tree (they should be touching). Brush egg wash on dough balls and bake until golden about 20 minutes.

Step 5

Meanwhile, whisk together melted butter, parmesan, garlic, and herbs. Brush on baked pizza balls. Serve warm with marinara for dipping.
