Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 can (16 ounces or 454 grams) refrigerated biscuit dough
- 8 ounces (225 grams) mozzarella cheese
Seasoning and Flavor Enhancers:
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
Optional Toppings:
- Grated Parmesan cheese
- Parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the oven environment by heating to 375F (190C) and setting up a parchment-lined or lightly greased baking sheet.
- Mix cream cheese with shredded cheddar, ensuring a smooth and uniform consistency for the filling.
- Separate refrigerated biscuit dough into individual rounds, gently stretching each piece to create a wider surface.
- Place a dollop of the cheese mixture in the center of each biscuit round, carefully avoiding overfilling.
- Gather the edges of the dough, pinching and sealing them completely to encase the cheese filling securely.
- Roll each sealed biscuit into a smooth ball, ensuring no cheese is exposed.
- Craft a savory topping by combining minced garlic with melted butter and finely chopped parsley.
- Generously brush each biscuit bomb with the garlic-herb butter mixture, coating the entire surface.
- Arrange the prepared biscuit bombs on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly to allow proper heat circulation.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, watching for a golden-brown exterior that indicates perfect doneness.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes, allowing the molten cheese interior to set slightly before serving.
Notes
- Grate cheese cold for easier handling and more uniform melting throughout the biscuits.
- Brush biscuit tops with melted butter and sprinkle with fresh herbs like parsley or chives for extra flavor complexity.
- Use room temperature ingredients to ensure smoother dough mixing and more consistent texture in the final baked biscuits.
- Chill stuffed biscuits for 10-15 minutes before baking to help them maintain their shape and prevent cheese from leaking during cooking.
