• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with non-stick cooking spray.
Step 2: Prepare the Biscuit Dough
1. Open the can of refrigerated biscuit dough and separate the biscuits.
2. Flatten each biscuit slightly using your hands or a rolling pin to create a small disc.
Step 3: Add the Cheese
1. Place a mozzarella cheese cube in the center of each biscuit disc.
2. Wrap the biscuit dough around the cheese cube, pinching the edges tightly to seal.
3. Repeat for all the biscuits and cheese cubes.
Step 4: Brush with Garlic Butter
1. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning.
2. Brush the garlic butter mixture generously over each biscuit bomb.
Step 5: Add Parmesan and Bake
1. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the tops of the biscuit bombs.
2. Arrange the bombs on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
3. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Step 6: Garnish and Serve
1. Remove the biscuit bombs from the oven and let them cool slightly.
2. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
3. Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping, if desired.
Tips
• Seal Tightly: Ensure the dough is sealed around the cheese to prevent leaks during baking.
• Experiment with Cheese: Try using other cheeses like cheddar or pepper jack for a twist.
• Reheat Gently: Reheat leftovers in the oven or air fryer to restore crispiness.
Storage Options
• Refrigeration: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• Freezing: Freeze unbaked biscuit bombs on a baking sheet until solid, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag. Bake directly from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the baking time.
