Perfect for parties, casual snacking, or family treats, these flavorful cheese bombs deliver buttery, cheesy richness that everyone will love.

Ingredients

Base

  • Pillsbury biscuit dough (1 can, typically 8 biscuits)

Garlic Butter

  • Unsalted butter (4 tablespoons, melted)
  • Fresh garlic (2 cloves, minced)

Cheese Filling

  • Shredded cheddar cheese or mozzarella cheese (1 to 1 ½ cups)

Topping

  • Grated Parmesan cheese (2 tablespoons)
  • Fresh parsley (2 tablespoons, chopped)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and prepare baking sheet: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
  2. Prepare garlic butter: Melt the unsalted butter and mix in the freshly minced garlic until fragrant. Set aside for brushing later.
  3. Separate and flatten biscuits: Open the Pillsbury biscuit can and gently separate each biscuit. Flatten each biscuit using your fingers or a rolling pin into a 4-5 inch diameter circle.
  4. Add cheese filling: Place a generous amount of shredded cheese in the center of each flattened biscuit, being careful not to overfill to avoid leakage during baking.
  5. Seal and shape: Fold the edges of the biscuit dough over the cheese and pinch tightly to seal, forming neat little balls.
  6. Brush with garlic butter: Place each cheese ball on the prepared baking sheet and brush generously with the garlic butter mixture for rich flavor and golden color.
  7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown and cheese is melted inside.
  8. Garnish and serve: After baking, sprinkle freshly grated Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley over the cheese bombs. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Use cold biscuit dough to help maintain shape and prevent cheese leakage.
  • Do not skip the garlic butter, as it adds essential flavor and richness.
  • Ensure edges are tightly sealed to keep cheese inside while baking.
  • Bake at the correct temperature for proper browning and to avoid burning the garlic butter.
  • For extra gooeyness, sprinkle a bit of shredded cheese on top of each ball before baking.
