Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 can Pillsbury biscuits (8 biscuits)
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) mozzarella cheese, cubed
Cheese and Filling:
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) melted butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
Herbs and Garnish:
- 1 tablespoon (15 ml) fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Prepare the oven by heating to 375°F (190°C) and cover a baking sheet with parchment paper for optimal non-stick performance.
- Gently press each biscuit dough flat, creating a smooth surface for cheese placement.
- Position a mozzarella cheese cube directly in the center of the flattened dough.
- Carefully wrap the dough around the cheese, pinching and sealing the edges completely to prevent cheese leakage during baking.
- Arrange the sealed cheese-filled dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring spacing between each bomb.
- Create a flavor-packed coating by thoroughly combining melted butter with minced garlic and finely chopped parsley in a mixing bowl.
- Generously brush the aromatic butter mixture over each dough ball, ensuring complete and even coverage.
- Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, watching for a golden-brown exterior and ensuring the cheese is fully melted inside.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving to prevent potential burns from hot cheese.
Notes
- Seal the cheese completely inside the dough to prevent leakage during baking, ensuring a gooey, molten cheese center.
- Use room temperature butter and cheese for easier wrapping and more even melting throughout the biscuit bombs.
- For a gluten-free version, swap Pillsbury biscuits with gluten-free biscuit dough or make your own using alternative flour blends.
- Experiment with different cheese varieties like cheddar, pepper jack, or blue cheese to create unique flavor combinations that match your taste preferences.
