Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 can Pillsbury Biscuits (8-count)
- 8 mozzarella cheese cubes
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Flavor Enhancers:
- 4 tablespoons (59 milliliters) butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
Garnish:
- 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) fresh parsley, finely chopped
Instructions
- Warm the oven to 375°F and prepare a parchment-lined baking sheet for optimal baking performance.
- Gently stretch each biscuit dough into a delicate circular shape, creating a soft canvas for the filling.
- Position a single cube of mozzarella precisely in the center of each stretched dough circle.
- Carefully envelop the cheese by folding the dough edges inward, meticulously sealing the seams to prevent leakage during baking.
- Transform each sealed packet into a perfect round sphere, ensuring a smooth exterior with no exposed cheese.
- Craft a fragrant garlic butter mixture by combining melted butter with finely minced garlic and freshly chopped parsley.
- Generously immerse each dough ball into the aromatic garlic butter, ensuring complete and even coverage.
- Roll the butter-coated spheres through grated Parmesan, creating a crisp and flavorful exterior coating.
- Strategically place the prepared bombs on the baking sheet with the sealed side facing downward to maintain structural integrity.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the bombs transform into golden, puffy delights with a crisp exterior.
- Serve immediately while the cheese remains molten and the exterior crackling, offering a perfect blend of textures and flavors.
Notes
- Seal the cheese completely inside the dough to prevent leakage during baking, creating perfect molten cheese centers.
- Use cold mozzarella cubes for best results, ensuring the cheese stays intact and melts slowly while the biscuit exterior turns golden brown.
- Experiment with different cheese variations like cheddar or pepper jack for unique flavor profiles that complement the garlic butter coating.
- For gluten-free options, substitute Pillsbury biscuits with gluten-free biscuit dough or use almond flour-based biscuit alternatives to maintain the recipe’s delicious essence.
