Homemade Garlic Butter Cheese Bombs – Soft, Cheesy, and Irresistibly Delicious


  • Author: WAFA LI

Ingredients

• 1 can (16.3 oz) refrigerated jumbo biscuits (8 count) or homemade biscuit dough
• 8 small mozzarella cheese balls (bocconcini) or cubes of cheddar/pepper jack
• ¼ cup (½ stick) unsalted butter, melted
• 2 cloves garlic, minced (or ½ tsp garlic powder)
• ½ tsp dried parsley
• ¼ tsp onion powder
• Pinch of salt
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Flatten each biscuit with your palm or rolling pin. Place a cheese ball in the center.
  3. Pull up the edges of the dough and pinch tightly to seal, forming a ball around the cheese.
  4. Place on the baking sheet, seam-side down.
  5. Bake 18–22 minutes, until golden brown.
  6. While baking, mix melted butter, garlic, dried parsley, onion powder, and salt.
  7. Remove from oven. Immediately brush warm bombs generously with garlic butter mixture.
  8. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot—cheese will be gooey and delicious!
