Ingredients

  • 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 8-10 cubes low-moisture mozzarella cheese
  • 4 tbsp melted butter
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Step 2: Separate the biscuit dough into individual pieces and flatten each slightly with your hands.
  3. Step 3: Place a cube of mozzarella in the center of each dough piece. Fold the dough over the cheese and pinch the edges tightly to seal, forming a ball.
  4. Step 4: In a bowl, combine the melted butter with garlic powder and Italian seasoning, mixing well.
  5. Step 5: Dip each dough ball into the butter mixture, coating it thoroughly.
  6. Step 6: Arrange the dough balls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the tops with grated Parmesan cheese.
  7. Step 7: Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and puffed.
  8. Step 8: Remove from the oven, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve immediately while warm and gooey.

Tips & Variations

  • For added flavor, try mixing in some finely chopped sun-dried tomatoes or cooked bacon bits into the biscuit dough before sealing.
  • Use different cheeses like pepper jack or smoked mozzarella for a unique twist.
  • Serve with marinara or ranch dressing for dipping.
  • Make sure to pinch the dough edges tightly to prevent the cheese from leaking during baking.

Storage

Store leftover biscuit bombs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a 350°F (175°C) oven for about 5-7 minutes to maintain crispiness and melty cheese inside. Avoid microwaving as it can make the dough soggy.

How to Serve

The image shows a tray full of evenly baked, golden brown garlic knots. Each knot is rounded and slightly puffy with a soft, lightly browned exterior. The knots are garnished with small bits of chopped green herbs and melted cheese that creates a slightly crusty, golden top layer. One knot near the center is broken open, revealing a soft, fluffy white interior dotted with bits of herbs. The tray has a slight shine on the surface, hinting at a light coating of oil or butter on the knots. The background is a white marbled texture. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

You can substitute with homemade biscuit dough or pizza dough, though baking times may vary slightly. Just be sure to seal the cheese well inside.
