Take store-bought dough out and let it thaw until cold to touch.

Cut the dough in half and then into six pieces to make petals.

Stretch and roll each piece out to hold a pocket for the cheese.

Cut the remaining rolls in half and shape them into 3-inch by 1-inch pieces, keeping gaps for rising.

Let the whole flower rise before filling it with cheese mixture.

Fill each petal with a mixture of cubed havarti and fontina cheese, crushed garlic, rosemary, and thyme.

Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rise for about 30 minutes.

Bake at 350°F for about 20 minutes until the petals pull apart.
