1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees celcius/ 390 degrees fahrenheit. Line a large baking tray with baking paper.

2. Lightly dust a clean surface with flour. Stretch and roll each dough ball into a long rectangle.

3. Spread over ½ cup cream cheese evenly onto both dough rectangles.

4. Evenly sprinkle over 1 cup spinach, ½ cup sundried tomato and a pinch of salt and pepper.

5. Carefully roll each dough rectangle up into a long cylinder and slice horizontally 7 times.

6. Roll each slice into a tightly sealed ball. Place balls (seam down) onto the baking tray and create the shape of a christmas tree. The balls should be touching.

7. Sprinkle over ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese, 2 tbsp basil leaves and ¼ cup cherry tomatoes.

8. Bake in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes, until golden brown. Serve warm!
