4 tablespoons butter, melted

3 cloves garlic, minced (or 1 tsp garlic powder)

Instructions:

Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. -
Prepare Garlic Butter:
In a small bowl, mix melted butter, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, parsley, and a pinch of salt. -
Assemble the Bombs:
-
Separate the biscuit dough into individual biscuits and flatten each one into a circle (about 4 inches diameter).
-
Place a piece of mozzarella (or a small handful of shredded cheese) in the center of each circle.
-
Gather the edges up and pinch tightly to seal the cheese inside, forming a ball.
-
-
Coat with Garlic Butter:
-
Dip each cheese ball into the garlic butter mixture, making sure they are well coated.
-
Place them seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
-
-
Bake:
Bake for 12–15 minutes until golden brown and puffy. -
Final Brush:
Optional: Brush with any remaining garlic butter right after baking for extra flavor. -
Serve:
Serve warm with marinara sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.
Tips:
-
Use fresh garlic for the best flavor but garlic powder works in a pinch.
-
For a twist, add a small piece of pepperoni or cooked bacon inside with the cheese.
-
These are best served immediately while gooey and melty!
