If you’re in the mood for a scrumptious, cheesy treat that’s both simple to make and incredibly satisfying, you’re in luck! Today, we’re whipping up a batch of Gooey Mozzarella Biscuit Bombs that are perfect for any occasion, whether it’s a casual family snack, a fun party appetizer, or just a decadent treat to enjoy on a relaxing evening at home. With their melty mozzarella center and a buttery, herb-infused exterior, these bombs are sure to explode with flavor in every bite. Let’s get started!
Ingredients:
- 1 can of refrigerated biscuit dough
- 16 cubes of mozzarella cheese (about 1-inch each)
- 4 tablespoons of melted butter
- 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning
- 2 tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Directions:
1. Prep: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to ensure that nothing sticks and cleanup is a breeze.
2. Prepare the dough: Open your can of biscuit dough and separate the biscuits. Take each piece and flatten it out in the palm of your hand. Place a cube of mozzarella right in the center of the flattened dough.
3. Form the bombs: Now, bring the edges of the dough over the cheese, pinching them together firmly to seal the cheese inside. This will prevent any cheese leaks during baking. Gently roll the dough in your hands to form a smooth ball.
4. Add flavor: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Mix well to incorporate the flavors. Dip each biscuit bomb into the butter mixture, ensuring each one is well-coated with the garlicky, herby butter.
5. Bake: Arrange the coated bombs on your prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between them to allow for expansion. Sprinkle the tops with grated Parmesan cheese for an extra touch of flavor. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and the aroma fills your kitchen.
6. Serve: Once done, remove from the oven and immediately garnish with freshly chopped parsley. The fresh green adds a nice pop of color and a burst of freshness against the rich, golden-brown crust.
Serving Suggestions:
These Mozzarella Biscuit Bombs are best served warm, straight from the oven, to maximize the gooey, cheesy goodness. They pair wonderfully with a side of marinara sauce for dipping, or even a creamy ranch dressing if you prefer.
