Ingredients
For the Bread:
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/4 cup butter
- 2 large eggs
For the Filling:
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts
Start by combining the flour, sugar, yeast, and salt in a large mixing bowl. In a small saucepan, heat the milk, water, and butter until the butter is melted. Let it cool for a few minutes before adding it to the dry ingredients. Then, add in the eggs and mix until a dough forms.
Step 2: Knead and Rise
On a floured surface, knead the dough for about 5 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a cloth, and let it rise for about an hour until it has doubled in size.
Step 3: Make the Filling
In a small mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Fold in the dried cranberries and chopped walnuts.
Step 4: Assemble the Tree
Roll out the dough into a large rectangle and spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the surface. Starting at one of the long sides, roll the dough up tightly into a log. Cut the log into 12 equal slices and place them in a greased 9-inch round cake pan, arranging them in the shape of a Christmas tree.
Step 5: Bake and Glaze
Bake the bread in a preheated 375°F oven for about 25 minutes, until it is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Meanwhile, make the glaze by combining the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract. Once the bread is done, let it cool for a few minutes before drizzling the glaze over the top.

This Christmas tree bread with cream cheese is a delicious and festive addition to any holiday gathering. The combination of flavors and textures make it a crowd-pleaser, and the beautiful presentation is sure to impress. So go ahead and give this recipe a try, and enjoy the compliments that come with it!
