Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F, then line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper, and set them aside. In a large mixing bowl, add the spinach, cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, and seasoning, then mix everything together until well combined, and set the mixture aside. Roll out one of the doughs on the prepared baking sheet, then spread the filling over the dough evenly, and top it with the other sheet of pastry.

Step 2

Cut it into the shape of a tree as shown in the video, then in a small bowl, mix together the butter, parmesan cheese, garlic, and seasoning until combined, and brush it over the dough until well coated. Place it in the preheated oven, then let it bake for about 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown, and allow it to cool slightly. Serve and enjoy!
