Pillsbury Garlic Cheese Bombs (Print Version)

Light, cheesy bites with golden crust and gooey center, perfect for gatherings and fast to prepare.

# What You'll Need:

→ Dough

01 - 1 can refrigerated Pillsbury biscuits

→ Cheese Filling

02 - 8 ounces mozzarella cheese, cut into small cubes

→ Garlic Butter

03 - 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
04 - 3 cloves garlic, minced
05 - 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
06 - 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning

→ Topping

07 - Grated Parmesan cheese, for garnish (optional)

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - Open the can of biscuits and separate each. Flatten each biscuit slightly using your hands.
03 - Place a cube of mozzarella cheese in the center of each biscuit round. Fold the dough over the cheese and pinch the edges securely to seal.
04 - Position the sealed biscuits seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
05 - In a small bowl, combine melted butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, and Italian seasoning. Mix thoroughly.
06 - Brush the surface of each biscuit generously with the garlic butter mixture.
07 - Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, until the biscuits are golden brown and puffed.
08 - If desired, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top of the hot biscuits immediately after removing from the oven.
09 - Serve the garlic cheese bombs warm for best flavor and texture.

# Additional Notes:

01 - Different cheese varieties such as cheddar or pepper jack can be used to vary the flavor.
02 - To prevent the cheese from leaking out, ensure biscuit edges are tightly sealed after enclosing the cheese.
03 - Garlic cheese bombs may be assembled ahead and refrigerated until baking.
04 - The unbaked assembled cheese bombs can be frozen and baked from frozen, adding a few minutes to the bake time.
05 - For a richer flavor, Parmesan cheese can be sprinkled on top before baking.
