Homemade gooey mozzarella biscuit bombs are a quick and satisfying snack or appetizer that combines fluffy biscuits with a molten cheese center. Perfect for parties, family gatherings, or a cozy night in, these cheesy treats are irresistibly delicious and easy to make!
Ingredients
- 1 can (8 pieces) refrigerated biscuit dough
- 8 mozzarella cheese cubes (about 1-inch cubes)
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley or Italian seasoning
- 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Open the biscuit dough can and separate it into individual biscuits. Flatten each biscuit slightly with your hands to create a larger surface.
Place a mozzarella cube in the center of each flattened biscuit. Fold the edges of the biscuit dough around the cheese, pinching the seams to seal it completely. Roll the dough into a smooth ball.
Arrange the biscuit bombs seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced slightly apart.
In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, minced garlic, and parsley (or Italian seasoning). Brush the tops of the biscuit bombs with the garlic butter mixture. If desired, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the tops for added flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Serving Suggestions
Serve these mozzarella biscuit bombs warm with a side of marinara sauce or ranch dressing for dipping. They pair well with soups, salads, or as a side to pasta dishes.
Tips for Success
- Ensure the biscuit dough is sealed tightly around the cheese to prevent it from leaking during baking.
- Experiment with different fillings like pepperoni, cooked sausage, or spinach for variety.
- For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of garlic powder or red pepper flakes to the butter mixture.
Conclusion
Homemade gooey mozzarella biscuit bombs are a delightful, cheesy treat that’s easy to prepare and sure to impress. Whether for a quick snack or a party appetizer, these biscuit bombs will be a hit with everyone who tries them!
