1. Preheat the oven to 200 ºC.
2. Slice off the top portion of the garlic head to expose some of the cloves. Place the garlic on a piece of foil. Drizzle with olive oil, wrap it up, and bake for 40-55 minutes, until deeply golden and very soft.
3. In a small saucepan heat the milk till tepid warm. In another small saucepan melt 2 tablespoons butter. In the bowl of a stand mixer combine the flour, yeast, and salt. Add the warm milk, honey, eggs, and butter. Using the dough hook, mix until the flour is completely incorporated, about 4-5 minutes. If the dough seems sticky, add a tablespoon of flour. Cover the bowl with cling film and let sit at room temperature for about 30-60 minutes.
4. Wash the sage, shake dry, pluck the leaves from the stems, and roughly chop. Once the garlic head cooled down, squeeze the cloves out into a bowl and mash them with the remaining butter, parmesan, sage, basil, oregano, and parsley.
5. Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper, divide the dough in half. On a floured surface, roll each dough into a large rectangle (roughly 40 x 30 cm). Place one rectangle on top of the other and cut them into a shape of a Christmas tree.
6. Separate the triangles and place 1 triangle on the prepared baking sheet. Spread 2/3 of the garlic butter over the triangle, carefully place the second triangle on top. Cut the triangle into horizontal slices about 2 cm apart from the top to bottom. Pull the strips and twist.
7. Brush the top with the remaining garlic butter and bake 25-30 minutes, until golden brown.
