Ingredients
Main Ingredients:
-
1 (8-count) package Pillsbury Grands buttermilk biscuits
-
4 mozzarella string cheese sticks, cut into 8 pieces each (total: 32 cheese chunks)
Garlic Butter:
-
4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
-
1 tbsp finely minced garlic
-
2 tbsp finely chopped parsley
-
Pinch of fine sea salt
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
-
Split each biscuit in half, then flatten each into a ¼-inch round using your hands or a rolling pin.
-
Mix butter, garlic, parsley, and salt in a small bowl to create your garlic glaze.
-
Add 2 cheese pieces in the center of each biscuit round. Fold and seal tightly into a ball, seam side down on a baking sheet.
-
Brush with garlic butter, then bake for 8–10 minutes until golden brown.
-
Brush again after baking with the remaining garlic butter. Serve warm for the full gooey effect!
Notes
-
Keep it sealed! Press the dough edges firmly so the cheese stays inside during baking.
-
Use a light-colored baking sheet to avoid over-browning on the bottoms.
-
For extra crispiness, place the biscuit bombs on a wire rack on top of the baking sheet.
-
Want a kick? Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the garlic butter for a spicy twist.
-
Make ahead tip: Assemble and refrigerate, then pop into the oven right before guests arrive for warm, fresh-out-of-the-oven bites.
-
Leftovers? Reheat in the oven or air fryer for a few minutes — they crisp right back up.
