1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Unfold your thawed pastry sheets and lay them on a clean surface.
3. On one of the pastry sheets, brush pesto into a large triangle.
4. Next, use a vegetable peeler to spread the Somerdale Wensleydale and Cranberry Wedge cheese over the pesto. The vegetable peeler is a simple hack if you do not have a cheese grater.
5. Cut the Black Creek Cheddar Cheese into 4 small cubes. Place the cubes on the empty top corners of the pastry dough, about an inch apart from the tree.
6. Take the second puff pastry sheet and lay it over the top, ensuring the edges match up.
7. Then using a star-shaped cookie cutter, make a star over each cheese cube.
8. To frame the tree, take a pizza cutter and slice the excess dough from the sides.
9. Next, using a knife, slice slits on either side of the tree (about 9 slits on each side.) Twist each piece of pastry dough, so they resemble tree branches.
10. Lay the cheese-stuffed stars at the top of the tree and sprinkle some dried cranberries.
11. Transport the pastry tree to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper—Bake in the oven for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
12. This Holiday Cranberry Pull Apart Bread Christmas Tree will be a favorite at your next party! Enjoy!
