Description

These cheesy garlic stuffed dough bites are soft, golden, and bursting with melted mozzarella in every bite. Perfect as an appetizer or snack.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (16.3 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Separate the biscuit dough into 8 biscuits. Cut each biscuit in half to make 16 pieces.
  3. Flatten each piece of dough slightly and place a small pinch of mozzarella cheese in the center. Fold dough around the cheese and pinch seams to seal, forming a ball.
  4. Place dough balls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  5. In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, minced garlic, and dried parsley. Brush the mixture over the tops of the dough balls.
  6. Sprinkle each dough ball with a pinch of Parmesan cheese and salt.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and puffed.
  8. Remove from oven and brush with remaining garlic butter mixture if desired. Serve warm.

Notes

For extra flavor, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or Italian seasoning to the butter mixture. These are best served fresh out of the oven.
