Ingredients
Scale
Biscuit Bombs
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough
- 8–10 cubes low-moisture mozzarella cheese
Coating and Topping
- 4 tbsp melted butter
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easy.
- Prepare Biscuit Dough: Separate the biscuit dough into individual pieces and flatten each piece slightly to make it easier to wrap around the cheese.
- Stuff Biscuit Bombs: Place a cube of mozzarella cheese in the center of each flattened dough piece. Carefully fold and pinch the dough around the cheese to seal it completely, forming a ball with no gaps.
- Make Butter Mixture: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter with garlic powder and Italian seasoning. Stir well to blend the flavors.
- Coat Dough Balls: Dip each sealed dough ball into the seasoned butter mixture, ensuring they are fully coated for maximum flavor.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place each coated dough ball seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the tops evenly with grated Parmesan cheese to add a savory crust.
- Bake: Bake the biscuit bombs in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and puff up nicely indicating they are cooked through.
- Garnish and Serve: Once baked, remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley for a fresh, vibrant finish. Serve warm to enjoy the gooey melted cheese inside.
Notes
- Ensure the dough is sealed tightly around the mozzarella cubes to prevent cheese from leaking during baking.
- You can substitute mozzarella with other cheeses like cheddar or pepper jack for different flavors.
- Use fresh herbs for garnish to enhance the dish’s aroma and presentation.
- Serve with marinara sauce or ranch dressing for dipping if desired.
