Buttery Garlic Cheese Bombs are a delicious baked treat featuring fluffy biscuit dough filled with melted mozzarella or cheddar cheese, then brushed with a savory garlic butter for a crispy, golden exterior and gooey cheesy center.

Ingredients

Scale

Biscuit Bombs

  • 1 can (8-count) refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 8 small cubes mozzarella or cheddar cheese

Garlic Butter

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced (or 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to ensure easy cleanup and prevent sticking.
  2. Prepare the Biscuits: Open the can of biscuit dough and separate each biscuit. Slightly flatten each biscuit with your fingers into a small disc shape, preparing them to be filled.
  3. Add the Cheese: Place one cube of mozzarella or cheddar cheese in the center of each flattened biscuit. Fold the edges over the cheese and pinch firmly to seal the cheese inside, then roll each into a smooth ball to prevent leakage during baking.
  4. Arrange on the Baking Sheet: Place each sealed cheese bomb seam-side down on the parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them evenly to allow room for expansion while baking.
  5. Make the Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter with minced garlic and chopped parsley, mixing well to infuse the butter with garlic flavor.
  6. Brush with Garlic Butter: Using a pastry brush, generously coat each cheese bomb with the garlic butter mixture, reserving a small amount of butter for after baking.
  7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the cheese bombs are puffed up and golden brown on the outside, indicating a crisp crust with molten cheese inside.
  8. Finish and Serve: Remove the cheese bombs from the oven and immediately brush with the remaining garlic butter for an extra buttery garlic finish. Serve warm to enjoy the melty cheese and rich garlic flavor.

Notes

  • Use fresh garlic instead of garlic powder for a more robust garlic flavor.
  • Fresh parsley is optional but adds brightness and color.
  • Ensure the biscuit edges are sealed well to prevent cheese from leaking during baking.
  • Serve immediately after baking for best texture and gooey cheese.
  • These cheese bombs can be customized with different types of cheese or added herbs.
