Description

Cheesy Garlic Butter Bombs are warm, gooey bites of mozzarella cheese wrapped in soft biscuit dough, brushed with fragrant garlic butter, and topped with Parmesan cheese. Perfect as an appetizer or snack, these delicious cheese bombs bake to golden perfection in just under 30 minutes.

Ingredients

Scale

Biscuit Dough

  • 1 can (8-count) refrigerated biscuit dough

Cheese Filling

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Garlic Butter Topping

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper to prepare for baking.
  2. Prepare Biscuit Dough: Open the can of biscuit dough and separate it into individual biscuits for shaping.
  3. Flatten Dough: Flatten each biscuit on a clean surface using your hands or a rolling pin to create a thin base for filling.
  4. Add Cheese Filling: Place about 1 tablespoon of shredded mozzarella cheese in the center of each flattened biscuit to create a gooey center.
  5. Seal Dough Balls: Fold the edges of the biscuit dough over the cheese to form a ball, pinching all seams securely to prevent cheese from leaking during baking.
  6. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the dough balls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet to ensure they hold their shape.
  7. Make Garlic Butter: In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and add minced garlic; sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant to infuse the butter with garlic flavor.
  8. Add Parsley and Seasoning: Remove the garlic butter from heat, stir in chopped parsley, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  9. Brush Dough Balls: Generously brush each dough ball with the garlic butter mixture to add flavor and help the Parmesan adhere.
  10. Sprinkle Parmesan: Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top of each buttered dough ball to add a savory, cheesy crust.
  11. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through, ensuring the dough is fluffy and cheese melted.
  12. Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven, allow to cool slightly, and serve warm for the best cheesy, buttery experience.

Notes

  • Make sure to pinch the dough seams tightly to prevent the cheese from oozing out during baking.
  • You can substitute mozzarella with a blend of cheeses like cheddar or Monterey Jack for different flavors.
  • For an extra kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the garlic butter mixture.
  • These cheese bombs are best served fresh and warm to enjoy the melty cheese inside.
  • You can prepare these ahead of time and refrigerate unbaked dough balls; bake shortly before serving.
