Baked Garlic Butter Cheese Bombs

💡 Pro Tips:

• Use cold cheese—it melts slower, staying contained longer.
• Don’t overfill—too much cheese = leaks (still delicious, but messier!).
• Brush bombs twice: once before baking, once after for maximum flavor.

Step-by-Step Instructions (Gooey, Golden, Foolproof)

1. Prep the Dough

• Separate biscuit dough; flatten each into a 4–5 inch circle (use rolling pin or hands).

2. Fill & Seal

• Place 1–2 tbsp cheese mix in center of each circle.
• Fold edges up and pinch tightly to seal into a ball.
• Place seam-side down on parchment-lined baking sheet.

3. Make Garlic Butter

• Mix melted butter, garlic, parsley, salt, and optional red pepper flakes.

4. Bake to Perfection

• Brush bombs lightly with half the garlic butter.
• Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 14–16 minutes, until golden brown.
• Remove from oven; brush with remaining garlic butter.
• Sprinkle with extra Parmesan or parsley if desired.

Serving Suggestions

• 🥓 Game day pairing: With marinara, ranch, or spicy sriracha mayo for dipping
• 🍝 Dinner side: Alongside pasta, soup, or salad
• 🍷 Wine night: Serve warm with charcuterie and olives
• 🧄 Extra indulgence: Add a sprinkle of everything bagel seasoning before baking

Make-Ahead & Storage Tips

• Fridge: Assemble unbaked; cover and refrigerate up to 24 hours. Bake as directed (+2 mins).
• Freeze: Freeze unbaked bombs on tray, then transfer to bag. Bake from frozen (+5–7 mins).
• Reheat: Warm in oven at 350°F for 5–8 minutes—microwaving makes them soggy.
