Ingredients
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese cubes

- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
How to Make Baked Garlic Butter Cheese Bombs
Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lining a baking dish or baking sheet with parchment paper.
Open the biscuit dough and separate the biscuits. Flatten each biscuit slightly using your hands.
Place a cube of mozzarella cheese in the center of each biscuit.
Fold the dough around the cheese and pinch the edges closed to form a ball.
Place the dough balls seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, minced garlic, parsley, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
Brush the garlic butter mixture generously over each dough ball.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top.
Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until the cheese bombs are golden brown and cooked through.
Serve warm while the cheese inside is still melted.
Tips for the Best Cheese Bombs
- Make sure the dough is sealed well to prevent the cheese from leaking out.
- Use mozzarella for the best melt, but cheddar or Monterey Jack also work well.
- Brush extra garlic butter on top right after baking for even more flavor.
