Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 (16 ounces) container refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits)
- 4 ounces mozzarella cheese (soft, shredded, or diced string cheese)
Seasoning Ingredients:
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 pinch of salt
Finishing Ingredients:
- 4 tablespoons melted butter (half a stick)
Instructions
- Transform refrigerated biscuit dough into delectable cheese-filled parcels that burst with molten mozzarella and aromatic garlic essence.
- Warm the oven to 375°F (190°C), preparing a baking sheet with parchment paper or a light coating of grease.
- Gently separate each biscuit from its container, carefully stretching and flattening into delicate 3-inch circular landscapes.
- Nestle a creamy mozzarella cube precisely at the center of each dough circle, then tenderly fold and encase the cheese, meticulously sealing the edges to create compact, rounded bundles.
- Position the cheese-sealed dough spheres with their sealed side downward on the prepared baking surface.
- Craft a luxurious butter elixir by blending melted butter with fragrant garlic powder, herb-infused Italian seasoning, and a whisper of salt.
- Lavishly paint the exterior of each biscuit bomb with the aromatic butter mixture, ensuring comprehensive coverage.
- Slide the baking sheet into the preheated oven, allowing the parcels to transform for 12-15 minutes until they achieve a golden, crisp exterior and the internal cheese melts into a luscious, gooey state.
- Extract from the oven and let rest momentarily, then present these sizzling gastronomic treasures immediately, accompanied by optional complementary dipping sauces for enhanced enjoyment.
Notes
- Choose cold, high-quality mozzarella to ensure a perfect cheesy center without leaking during baking.
- Seal edges carefully by pinching and rolling to prevent cheese from escaping while cooking.
- Use room temperature butter for easier mixing and more even coating on the biscuit bombs.
- For gluten-free option, substitute refrigerated biscuit dough with gluten-free biscuit mix or almond flour dough.
