Essential Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to make this delicious dish:
Garlic: Fresh cloves are best; their robust flavor truly elevates this dish.
Shredded Mozzarella Cheese: Choose high-quality cheese for maximum meltiness; it’s worth it!
Pillowy Dough (like biscuit dough): Use store-bought for ease, or whip up your favorite homemade version.
Fresh Parsley: Chopped parsley adds a pop of color and freshness that brightens up every bite.
Butter: Melted butter brushed on top gives the bombs an extra layer of richness and enhances browning.
Garlic Powder: For those who want even more garlicky goodness without chopping endless cloves!
The full ingredients list, including measurements, is provided in the recipe card directly below.
Let’s Make it Together
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper so our cheesy delights won’t stick around longer than necessary.
Mixing the Goodies: In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded mozzarella cheese with minced garlic and chopped parsley. The smell will make you want to dive right in!
Preparing the Dough: Take your biscuit dough and flatten each piece slightly using your hands or a rolling pin. Aim for about 3 inches in diameter; this helps create perfectly stuffed bombs.
Stuff ’em Up!: Place about a tablespoon of the cheesy mixture into the center of each flattened dough circle. Fold up the edges like you’re cradling an adorable baby—because let’s face it, these bombs deserve all your love!
Baking Time!: Arrange your stuffed dough balls on the prepared baking sheet. Brush melted butter over each one; this will make them golden brown and irresistibly shiny! Bake in your preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until beautifully golden.
The Moment of Truth!: Once out of the oven, let them cool for just a minute (if you can resist) before serving them warm. The gooey cheese will stretch like it’s auditioning for an action movie as you pull them apart!
Enjoy these Cheesy Garlic Bliss Bombs with friends while sharing stories and laughter—they’re simply too good not to share!
