First, cut shapes out of the provolone slices using snowflake and star cookie cutters.
Next, prep your salami by making salami folds and piling 3-4 pieces on a decorative toothpick.
Build your tree starting from the bottom with a row of cheese, then continue up the tree making sure each layer is slightly less wide than the last to ensure the triangle tree shape.
Create a tree trunk using pretzels at the bottom of the tree.
Garnish with rosemary sprigs to evoke the tree branch feeling, then finish with star-shaped cookies and provolone cut-outs to mimic ornaments.
