One 8-count package of Pillsbury Grands buttermilk biscuits
Four tablespoons of unsalted buttermelted
Two tablespoons of finely chopped parsley
Four sticks of mozzarella string cheesecut into eight equal pieces each
One tablespoon of minced garlic
A pinch of fine sea salt
Instructions
Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F to ensure it reaches the correct temperature for baking.
Prepare the Dough: Remove the biscuits from their packaging. Divide each biscuit into halves, and use your hands or a rolling pin to flatten each half to about a quarter inch in thickness, shaping them into small rounds.
Mix the Seasonings: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter with the minced garlic, chopped parsley, and sea salt. This mixture will both season and glaze the biscuit bombs.
Assemble the Biscuit Bombs: Place two pieces of the sliced mozzarella cheese at the center of each flattened biscuit. Fold the dough around the cheese, pinching the edges together to seal the cheese inside, forming a ball. Position the dough balls seam-side down on a light-colored baking sheet to avoid over-browning the bottoms.
Bake: Using a pastry brush, generously coat each dough ball with the garlic butter mixture. Bake the biscuit bombs for 8 to 10 minutes, or until they achieve a golden brown hue on top.
Glaze and Serve: Upon removing the biscuits from the oven, brush them once more with the remaining garlic butter for extra flavor and a glossy finish. Serve warm for the ultimate gooey mozzarella experience.
Notes
Serve these biscuit bombs fresh out of the oven to fully enjoy their gooey, cheesy center.
