Camembert dinner roll wreath

Soft and fluffy dinner rolls are absolute perfection when baked in a dinner roll wreath around a melty Camembert as a Festive appetizer.

I’ve shown you how to make the Ultimate Holiday board and today we do even more cheese in the form of this amazing Festive dinner roll wreath. You would be hard-pressed to find a more delectable appetizer for your holiday parties than this one. And it’s so easy! The dinner roll recipe is the same one I posted a few weeks ago but if you wanted to, you could of course use shop-bought bread dough.

No one, that’s who! I wanted to keep the flavors in the rolls plain and simple to make the Camembert shine but you could of course add garlic or herbs to the melted butter brushed onto the rolls and you could even sprinkle the rolls with sesame or poppy seeds. The choices are endless. But for now I’ll leave you to drool over that melty cheese. You’re welcome!
