Cheese Bomb Holiday Wreath

Cheesy balls of dough with a holiday attitude

Ingredients
  

  • 7 Sticks Mozzarella String Cheese Cut into 1" pieces
  • 2 Pkgs layered biscuit dough Each divided into 2 pieces
  • 6 Tbls Butter Melted
  • 1 Tbls Dried Parsley
  • 1 Tbls Dried Italian Seasoning
  • 1 Tsp Crushed Red Pepper Flakes More or less to tast
  • 1/2 Cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
  • Marinara Sauce For dipping

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375
  • Prepare sheet pan with piece of parchment paper to make easy serving and clean up.
  • Completely enclose piece of cheese with a section of biscuit. Do not handle too much or the dough will get too 'tough'.
  • Lay in a circle the size of your chosen serving dish/platter. Lay a second circle inside of the first. The dough should be touching. Being sure to allow enough space for your bowl of warmed marinara.
  • Melt butter with herbs. Brush wreath with 1/2 of the butter mixture. Bake 14 minutes. Be sure to check so they do not burn.
  • Remove from oven .. brush with additional butter mixture and sprinkle with the grated Parmesan. Return to oven and bake an additional 10 minutes until golden and cooked thru.
  • Move to serving platter ( I used a pizza pan). Place warmed marinara in center. Allow to cool until you are able to handle and serve.
  • Make ahead: I made the recipe the morning of our party up to the point of baking- wrapped with heavy plastic wrap and refrigerated until ready. If this is done add 5 or more minutes to the baking time.
