Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 can (refrigerated) biscuit dough
  • 1 to 1.5 cups fresh shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced (or roasted)
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Optional Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, for sprinkling on top
  • Fresh parsley or basil, chopped for garnish
  • Extras for variations: diced jalapeños, red pepper flakes, sautéed mushrooms, spinach, other cheeses like sharp cheddar or pepper jack

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Prep the Ingredients
    Shred fresh mozzarella cheese and finely mince the garlic cloves. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and for easy cleanup.
  2. Step 2: Prepare Garlic Butter
    In a small bowl, melt the butter and stir in the minced garlic along with the Italian seasoning. This mixture will be brushed onto the biscuit bombs to infuse them with garlic flavor and help develop a golden crust.
  3. Step 3: Assemble the Biscuit Bombs
    Separate the biscuit dough into individual pieces. Flatten each piece into a small disk. Place a generous spoonful of shredded mozzarella in the center. Carefully fold the dough over and pinch the edges tightly to seal, forming a smooth ball with no holes to prevent cheese leakage during baking.
  4. Step 4: Coat and Bake
    Place the sealed biscuit bombs evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with the garlic butter mixture to ensure a flavorful golden crust. Optionally, sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top for added flavor and crunch. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the biscuits are puffed and golden brown.
  5. Step 5: Cool and Serve
    Allow the biscuit bombs to cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving. This helps the molten cheese inside set just enough to avoid burning but keeps the center deliciously gooey.

Notes

  • Seal the dough tightly: Pinch edges well to prevent cheese leakage while baking.
  • Use fresh shredded mozzarella: Fresh cheese melts better and has a smoother texture than pre-shredded types with additives.
  • Don’t skip the garlic butter coating: It adds essential flavor and helps the biscuits develop a beautiful golden color.
  • Serve warm: Best enjoyed fresh from the oven while the cheese is molten and gooey.
  • Adjust sizes: Make smaller bombs for party bites or larger for a more filling snack.
