Ingredients
Scale
Cheese Bombs
- 1 container refrigerated biscuit dough (16 oz, 8 biscuits)
- 4 oz mozzarella cheese (shredded or diced string cheese)
Garlic Butter Topping
- 4 tbsp melted butter (half a stick)
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease it lightly to prevent sticking.
- Prepare Biscuit Dough: Open the refrigerated biscuit dough container and separate the 8 biscuits. Flatten each biscuit slightly with your hands, creating enough space to hold the cheese filling inside.
- Add Cheese: Cut the mozzarella cheese into 8 equal pieces. Place one piece of mozzarella in the center of each flattened biscuit.
- Seal Cheese Bombs: Fold the edges of the biscuit dough around the cheese piece, pinching tightly to seal it completely. Roll each sealed dough ball gently to form a smooth round shape. Place each cheese bomb seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Apply Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt. Use a pastry brush to generously coat each biscuit ball with this garlic butter mixture.
- Bake: Bake the cheese bombs in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until they are puffed up and golden brown on top.
- Final Touch and Serve: Remove the cheese bombs from the oven and brush them once again with any remaining garlic butter mixture for extra flavor. Serve warm alongside marinara sauce or ranch dressing for dipping.
Notes
- Make sure to seal the biscuit dough edges tightly to prevent cheese from leaking during baking.
- Use fresh mozzarella for the best taste and melt quality.
- You can substitute Italian seasoning with a mix of dried oregano, basil, and thyme.
- Serve immediately for the best gooey texture.
- Store leftover cheese bombs in an airtight container and reheat in the oven to retain crispness.
