How To Make These Gooey Mozzarella Biscuit Bombs

Ready to turn simple ingredients into an irresistible snack? Here’s how to make your Gooey Mozzarella Biscuit Bombs:

  • Preparation: Start by preheating your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit, setting the stage for baking.
  • Form the Base: Open your biscuit dough and separate each biscuit, then cut them in half. Flatten each piece into a rough circle about 1/4 inch thick—perfection in shape is not required here, just a good base for the filling.
  • Mix Seasonings: Combine melted butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, and a pinch of salt in a bowl. This mixture will flavor your bombs and give them a beautiful golden top when baked.
  • Assemble: Place pieces of mozzarella cheese in the center of each dough circle. Carefully fold the dough over the cheese, pinching the edges to seal and form a ball. Place them seam side down on a baking sheet—light-colored to prevent burning.
  • Bake to Perfection: Brush each bomb with your butter mixture before popping them into the oven. Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden brown. Once out, give them another buttery brush for extra shine and flavor, then serve warm.

Storage Options

Enjoying your Gooey Mozzarella Biscuit Bombs fresh is best, but if you have leftovers, here’s how to keep them:

  • Refrigerator: Store them in an airtight container; they’ll keep for up to 3 days.
  • Freezer: For longer storage, freeze them on a baking sheet before transferring to a freezer bag. They can be reheated in the oven or microwave, making them a perfect grab-and-go treat.

Variations and Substitutions

Adaptable and forgiving, these Gooey Mozzarella Biscuit Bombs can be customized to suit any taste:

  • Cheese Variations: Swap mozzarella for cheddar, pepper jack, or any melty cheese for a new flavor twist.
  • Add-Ins: Consider adding chopped pepperoni, ham, or cooked bacon bits inside the bombs for a meaty punch.
  • Herbs and Spices: Mix up the seasonings by using basil instead of parsley, or add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for a bit of heat.
  • Vegan Options: Use plant-based cheese and biscuits for a vegan-friendly version that keeps the gooey goodness alive.

Ingredients
  

  • One 8-count package of Pillsbury Grands buttermilk biscuits
  • Four sticks of mozzarella string cheese each cut into eight equal parts
  • Four tablespoons of unsalted butter melted
  • One tablespoon of finely minced garlic
  • Two tablespoons of finely chopped parsley
  • A pinch of fine sea salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven: Initiate by setting the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure it reaches the correct temperature for baking.
  • Prepare the Dough: Remove the biscuits from the package. Separate and divide each biscuit in half. Utilize a rolling pin or your hands to flatten each piece to approximately a quarter inch in thickness, aiming to maintain a rounded shape.
  • Combine the Seasonings: In a small mixing bowl, amalgamate the melted butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, and salt. This mixture will be used for flavoring and as a glaze for the biscuits.
  • Assemble the Biscuits: Take two pieces of the sliced mozzarella cheese and place them at the center of each flattened biscuit dough piece. Carefully fold the dough over the cheese, pressing the edges together to seal and form a sealed ball. Ensure the seam is positioned downward when placing the dough balls on a baking sheet, preferably one that is light in color to prevent the bottoms from overcooking.
  • Bake: Generously apply the garlic butter mixture to each dough ball using a pastry brush. Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
  • Final Glaze and Serve: Upon removal from the oven, immediately brush the biscuits with the remaining garlic butter mixture for added flavor and sheen. Serve while warm to enjoy the gooey mozzarella filling at its best.
