Ingredients
For the Main Dish:
- 1 can (16.3 oz) Pillsbury refrigerated biscuits (10-count)
- 6 oz shredded mozzarella cheese
- 4 oz shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the Garlic Butter Sauce:
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tsp dried Italian seasoning or fresh parsley (optional)
How I Make It
Step 1:
Preheat your oven to 375°F. Open the Pillsbury biscuit can and separate the dough. Flatten each biscuit into a roughly 4-inch circle using your hands or a rolling pin—it doesn’t have to be perfect, just even enough to fold.
Step 2:
In a small bowl, combine melted butter, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Brush a thin layer of this garlic butter onto each biscuit circle to infuse tons of flavor right from the start.
Step 3:
Load each biscuit with about a tablespoon each of shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese. Don’t be shy! The cheese is the star here. Then, carefully pinch the edges together to seal the cheese inside, creating a little “bomb”. Make sure the seam is pinched tight to avoid leaks.
Step 4:
Place the stuffed biscuits seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush the tops generously with the leftover garlic butter mixture for that irresistible golden color and extra flavor.
Step 5:
Bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and have puffy up beautifully. Your kitchen should smell amazing by now!
Step 6:
While they’re baking, mix together the garlic butter sauce ingredients: melted butter, minced garlic, and Italian seasoning or parsley. Once out of the oven, brush these warm cheese bombs with the garlic butter sauce one more time for maximum buttery garlic goodness.
Variations & Tips
- Swap the mozzarella and cheddar for pepper jack or gouda for a different cheese vibe.
- Add a small piece of cooked bacon or a slice of pepperoni inside for a meaty surprise.
- If dough feels too sticky to work with, lightly flour your hands and surface.
- Serve with marinara or ranch dressing for a delicious dipping option.
- Want extra garlic punch? Sprinkle a little garlic powder over the tops before baking.
How I Like to Serve It
I love serving these cheese bombs as a game day snack or alongside a hearty bowl of tomato soup on chilly evenings. They also make fantastic finger food for casual get-togethers or a quick after-school treat. When fresh and warm, they’re seriously irresistible!
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days; reheat in the oven to keep them crisp.
- If you want to prepare ahead, assemble the cheese bombs and refrigerate before baking, adding 2-3 extra minutes to bake time.
Closing: These Pillsbury Biscuit Garlic Butter Cheese Bombs come together so easily, and they always bring that perfect cheesy, garlicky comfort—making them a total winner every time.
