Ingredients Needed
For the dough:

1/4 cup of granulated sugar
1/4 cup of milk
1/4 teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
For the filling:
1 cup of cranberry jam
1/2 cup of chopped pecans
1/4 cup of brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon
Instructions
Step 1: Making the Dough
To start, combine the flour, butter, sugar, milk, salt, and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl. Use your hands or a stand mixer to mix all the ingredients together until a smooth dough forms. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Step 2: Preparing the Filling
In a separate bowl, mix together the cranberry jam, chopped pecans, brown sugar, and cinnamon. This will be the filling for your Christmas star tree.
Step 3: Rolling Out the Dough
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Take the dough out of the refrigerator and divide it into two equal parts. Roll out one part of the dough on a floured surface into a large circle, about 1/4 inch thick.
Step 4: Assembling the Tree
Spread the filling evenly over the rolled-out dough, leaving about an inch border around the edges. Roll out the second part of the dough into a circle and place it over the filling. Use a star-shaped cookie cutter to cut out the tree shape. Carefully transfer the tree to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 5: Baking and Decorating
Bake the Christmas star tree for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown. Let it cool for a few minutes before decorating with a dusting of powdered sugar and some festive sprinkles. Serve and enjoy!
