Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (16oz) container of refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits)
- 4 ounces mozzarella cheese (soft, shredded, or diced string cheese)
- 4 tbsp melted butter (half a stick)
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Prepare the Biscuits: Open the container of refrigerated biscuit dough and separate the biscuits. Flatten each biscuit into a 3-inch circle.
- Add the Cheese: Place a piece of mozzarella cheese in the center of each biscuit dough circle. Fold the edges of the dough up and around the cheese, pinching to seal and form a ball.
- Season and Bake: Place the cheese-filled biscuit bombs seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt. Brush the tops of the biscuit bombs with the seasoned butter mixture.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuit bombs are golden brown and the cheese is melted and gooey.
- Serve: Serve the garlic butter cheese bombs warm. Enjoy them on their own or with a dipping sauce of your choice!
Notes
- To ensure cheese doesn’t leak out, pinch the dough securely around the cheese.
- For a spicier version, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the butter mixture.
