Steps:
- Heat oven to 350°F. Line 18x14-inch cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper.
- Cut each cheese stick into 4 pieces to make 64 pieces. Separate each can of dough into 8 biscuits. Separate each biscuit into 2 layers for a total of 32 biscuit rounds. Flatten each biscuit round into 4-inch circle.
- Place 2 pieces of the same type of cheese on center of each round. Fold edges up and over cheese; pinch firmly to seal. Using photo as a guide, place biscuits randomly by assorted cheeses, seam sides down and next to each other in a tree-shaped pattern on cookie sheet, starting with trunk and working up to the top.
- In small microwavable bowl, microwave butter uncovered on High 30 to 60 seconds or until melted. Stir in garlic powder and Italian seasoning. Brush mixture on tops of biscuits. Bake 29 to 33 minutes or until golden brown and biscuits are no longer doughy in center.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Flip a baking sheet upside down and place a piece of parchment paper on top. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and Club House ranch dip seasoning. Stir until well mixed. Fold in the spinach. Set aside.
- Roll out the tube of pizza dough on a piece of parchment paper set on a flat surface. Using a pizza cutter or knife, cut from a bottom corner to the center of the top. Repeat on the other side so you have 1 full triangle and 2 halves of a triangle on either side.
- Transfer both side-triangle pieces to the prepared baking sheet. Pinch the middle seam to seal and stretch the dough to form a single triangle.
- Spread the spinach dip over a side of the triangle.
- Spread the pesto over the other side of the triangle.
- Flip the remaining dough triangle on top of the filling and remove the parchment from the top. Stretch the dough to cover completely.
- Using a pizza cutter or knife, make horizontal slices about 1 inch apart from the top to bottom, leaving the middle "trunk" of the tree intact.
- Pull the strips outwards and twist.
- In a small bowl, mix the melted butter and garlic and brush over the tree.
- Sprinkle with the Club House Italian herbs and shredded Parmesan cheese.
- Bake the tree for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and the cheese has melted.
- Serve with marinara sauce.
- Enjoy!
