Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 8 frozen Texas Rolls (thawed, Rhodes brand preferred)
- 4 sticks mozzarella cheese (cut into 16 pieces)
Seasoning and Flavor Enhancers:
- 4 tablespoons salted butter (melted)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon parsley flakes (freshly chopped or dried)
Instructions
- Gently remove frozen dough rolls from packaging and arrange on a chilled surface, covering with loose plastic film. Allow them to gradually expand and soften over 4-6 hours in refrigerated environment.
- Slice mozzarella sticks into compact, uniform segments approximately one inch long.
- Calibrate oven temperature to 350°F and prepare a clean parchment-lined baking surface.
- Delicately press each dough sphere into a thin, circular shape using fingertips, creating a smooth disk.
- Strategically position two cheese segments precisely at the center of each dough disk.
- Carefully fold and seal dough edges, ensuring complete cheese encapsulation. Smoothly transform each bundle with sealed side facing downward on prepared baking sheet.
- Transfer baking sheet into preheated oven, monitoring transformation for 9-11 minutes until exterior achieves golden-brown luminescence.
- Concurrently, transform butter into liquid state through gentle heating, incorporating minced garlic and fragrant parsley flakes into molten mixture.
- Extract cheese bombs from oven and generously brush with aromatic garlic-herb infused butter.
- Permit brief cooling interval before serving, allowing internal cheese to stabilize while maintaining optimal temperature and texture.
Notes
- Perfectly Thaw Dough by slowly refrigerating rolls overnight, ensuring they double in size for soft, fluffy texture.
- Prevent Cheese Leakage by pinching dough edges tightly, creating a complete seal around mozzarella pieces to keep melted cheese inside.
- Customize Flavor by experimenting with different cheese types like cheddar or pepper jack for unique taste variations.
- Create Gluten-Free Alternative by substituting traditional dough with gluten-free pizza or bread dough to accommodate dietary restrictions.
