Ingredients
Scale
Cheese Bombs
- 1 container (16oz) refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits)
- 4 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded or diced string cheese
Butter Topping
- 4 tbsp butter, melted (half stick)
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Prepare Biscuit Dough: Flatten each biscuit slightly to create a surface for filling. Place a portion of mozzarella cheese in the center of each flattened biscuit.
- Seal Cheese Bombs: Fold the dough around the cheese and pinch tightly to seal, ensuring no cheese will leak out during baking.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place each sealed cheese ball seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes or until the biscuits are puffed and golden brown.
- Prepare Butter Mixture: While baking, mix melted butter with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt to create a flavorful brush-on topping.
- Brush Cheese Bombs: Remove the cheese bombs from the oven and immediately brush them generously with the seasoned melted butter while still hot.
- Serve: Serve warm to enjoy the delicious gooey cheese pull and savory flavors.
Notes
- For best results, use mozzarella cheese that melts well, such as shredded mozzarella or diced string cheese.
- You can substitute Italian seasoning with an herb blend of your choice like oregano, basil, or parsley.
- Make sure to seal the dough very well to prevent cheese from leaking during baking.
- Serve immediately for the best gooey cheese experience.
- These cheese bombs can be paired with marinara sauce for dipping, if desired.
