Garlic Cheese Bombs

Ingredients You’ll Need

The secret to these cheese bombs lies in their simple yet indulgent ingredients. Here’s what you’ll need:

For the Cheese Bombs:

    • 1 tube refrigerated biscuit dough (e.g., Pillsbury Grands)
    • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or your favorite melting cheese like cheddar, Monterey Jack, or pepper jack)
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional, for extra flavor)
 

For the Garlic Butter Coating:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped, plus extra for garnish)
 

Optional Add-Ins:

  • Red pepper flakes (for a spicy kick)
  • Italian seasoning (for extra flavor)
  • Bacon bits (for a smoky twist)
 

Step-by-Step Instructions

Ready to whip up these cheesy, garlicky delights? Follow these easy steps:

 

Step 1: Preheat Your Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) . Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it for easy cleanup.

 

Step 2: Prepare the Dough

Open the tube of biscuit dough and separate the biscuits. Flatten each biscuit into a circle using your hands or a rolling pin. Place a generous spoonful of shredded cheese (and optional Parmesan) in the center of each flattened biscuit.

 

Step 3: Seal the Bombs

Gather the edges of the dough around the cheese and pinch tightly to seal. Roll the filled dough into a smooth ball between your palms to ensure no cheese leaks out during baking.

 

Step 4: Bake the Bombs

Place the sealed cheese bombs on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1–2 inches apart. Bake for 12–15 minutes , or until golden brown and puffed up.

 

Step 5: Make the Garlic Butter

While the cheese bombs bake, prepare the garlic butter. In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, minced garlic, garlic powder, chopped parsley, and any optional add-ins like red pepper flakes or Italian seasoning.

 

Step 6: Coat the Bombs

As soon as the cheese bombs come out of the oven, brush them generously with the garlic butter mixture. Sprinkle with additional chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness.

 

Step 7: Serve and Enjoy

Serve the cheese bombs warm while the cheese is still gooey and melty. Pair with marinara sauce, ranch dressing, or hot sauce for dipping if desired.
