It all started one Friday evening, as I pondered what new dish to bring to our game night potluck. Tired of the usual chips and dips, I decided to get creative with some Pillsbury Grands! Biscuits I had in the fridge. The result? A tray of these delightful cheese bombs that disappeared faster than I could say “Bingo!” The blend of buttery garlic and melted cheese, enveloped in a soft, flaky biscuit, was an instant hit, and I’ve been making them ever since.

Ingredients:

  • 1 can of Pillsbury Grands! Biscuits
  • 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, cut into small cubes
  • 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon of fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
  • Marinara sauce for dipping (optional)

Instructions:

Step 1: Preheat Your Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent the biscuits from sticking.

Step 2: Prepare the Biscuits

Open the can of Pillsbury Grands! Biscuits and separate them. Flatten each biscuit slightly with your hands or a rolling pin.

Step 3: Add the Cheese

Place a cube of mozzarella cheese in the center of each flattened biscuit. Carefully fold the edges of the biscuit around the cheese, ensuring it is fully enclosed. Pinch the seams to seal the cheese inside.

Step 4: Make the Garlic Butter

In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, and chopped parsley. Mix well to ensure the garlic and parsley are evenly distributed.

Step 5: Coat the Cheese Bombs

Dip each cheese-filled biscuit into the garlic butter mixture, ensuring it is well-coated. Place the coated biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, seam side down.

Step 6: Bake

Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top of each biscuit. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 7: Serve

Remove the cheese bombs from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. For an extra touch, you can garnish them with a bit more fresh parsley. Serve warm with marinara sauce on the side for dipping.

Equipment List:

  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper or cooking spray
  • Rolling pin (optional)
  • Small bowl
  • Spoon

Tips:

  • Ensure the biscuit dough is sealed well around the cheese to prevent it from oozing out during baking.
  • For a bit of spice, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the garlic butter mixture.
  • These cheese bombs are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven but can be reheated in a microwave or oven if needed.

Variations:

  • Herb Explosion: Add a mix of dried Italian herbs to the garlic butter for an extra flavor boost.
  • Cheese Variety: Try using different types of cheese such as cheddar or pepper jack for a unique twist.
  • Bacon Lovers: Add a small piece of cooked bacon inside each biscuit along with the cheese for a smoky, savory surprise.

FAQs:

Can I use a different type of biscuit dough? Yes, you can use any biscuit dough you prefer, but the baking time may need to be adjusted accordingly.

What if I don’t have fresh parsley? You can substitute dried parsley or even omit it, although fresh parsley gives the best flavor and appearance.

Can these cheese bombs be made ahead of time? They are best served fresh, but you can prepare them up to the baking step and refrigerate. Bake them just before serving for the best results.

Is there a substitute for marinara sauce? Absolutely! You can use ranch dressing, garlic aioli, or any of your favorite dipping sauces.

Pillsbury Biscuit Garlic Butter Cheese Bombs are a simple yet impressive treat that combines the irresistible flavors of garlic, butter, and cheese. Whether you’re serving them at a party or enjoying a cozy night in, these cheese bombs are sure to delight everyone who tries them.
