- 16 cubes mozzarella cheese (about 1 inch each)
- 4 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
1. Prepare Your Oven and Baking Sheet
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with non-stick spray.
2. Flatten the Biscuit Dough
- Open the can of biscuit dough and separate the biscuits.
- Using your hands or a rolling pin, flatten each biscuit into a small disc.
3. Add the Mozzarella Cheese
- Place one mozzarella cube in the center of each flattened biscuit.
- Wrap the dough around the cheese, pinching the edges tightly to seal completely.
4. Prepare the Garlic Butter
- In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning.
5. Brush and Season
- Arrange the sealed biscuit bombs on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each.
- Brush each bomb generously with the garlic butter mixture.
- Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top for added flavor.
6. Bake to Perfection
- Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown and the cheese is melted inside.
7. Garnish and Serve
- Once baked, remove the biscuit bombs from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
- Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
- Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping and enjoy!
Tips for Success
- Seal Well: Ensure the edges of the dough are tightly sealed to prevent cheese from oozing out during baking.
- Customize Seasonings: Add chili flakes to the garlic butter for a spicy kick or sprinkle additional herbs for extra flavor.
- Experiment with Cheese: Swap mozzarella for cheddar, gouda, or any cheese that melts well.
Serving Suggestions
- Serve as an appetizer with marinara or ranch dressing.
- Pair with a hearty soup like tomato basil for a cozy meal.
- Use them as a party snack or a game-day treat.
