Easy
Ingredients
  • Aged Cheddar Cheese 200g
  • Fresh grated parmesan, plus more for serving 1/2 cup
  • Fresh parsley, finely chopped 1 tablespoon
  • Garlic, minced 3 cloves
  • Large egg, whisked 1
  • Pizza dough, store bought or homemade 1 lb
  • Pomi Marinara Sauce 7.05 oz
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Unsalted butter, melted 1/4 cup
Preparation

Directions

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 425(f) degrees. Cut cheddar cheese into 1-inch cubes & set aside.

  • On a floured surface divide pizza dough into 32 evenly sized rounds. Roll each piece of dough to flatten & wrap around a piece of cheese. Pinch the edges to seal tightly. Repeat with remaining rounds.

  • Place the stuffed dough seam side down on the prepared baking sheet in the shape of a christmas tree (follow imagery). Freeze for 10 minutes to ensure shape holds.

  • Brush generously with egg wash & bake until golden, about 20 minutes.

  • As dough bakes prepare the garlic butter. To a saucepan over low heat melt together the butter & garlic. Whisk in parsley & parmesan. Remove from heat.

  • Drizzle garlic butter over the baked christmas tree & brush into each nook. Top with additional parmesan cheese & serve with POMI's marinara as the tree topper.
