Instructions
Preparation
Preheat your oven to 350°F to ensure even baking.
Cut each mozzarella cheese stick into four pieces, totaling 32 pieces.
Wrap each cheese piece with a small section of bread dough, forming bite-sized balls.
Arrange the cheese balls on a baking sheet in a festive tree shape, seam-side down.
Brush the arranged dough balls with melted butter for a rich color.
Bake for about 30 minutes, or until golden brown.
Garnish with shredded parmesan and minced garlic or chopped herbs.
Serve warm alongside pizza sauce for dipping.

Serve immediately for the best experience; the gooey cheese is delightful when fresh.
