Description
Deliciously cheesy garlic biscuit balls made with fluffy biscuit dough, packed with mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses, and coated in a flavorful garlic butter sauce. These bite-sized treats are perfect as appetizers, snacks, or party finger foods.
Ingredients
For the dough:
- 1 can Grands Biscuits (10 count)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Garlic butter sauce:
- 1–2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp garlic paste
- 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (187°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking the biscuit balls evenly.
- Prepare Biscuits: Split each Grands biscuit in half and gently stretch them slightly to make space for the cheese filling without tearing.
- Fill with Cheese: Place about 1-2 teaspoons of shredded mozzarella cheese in the center of each biscuit half. Fold and tuck the dough securely over the cheese, then roll in your hands to seal the cheese inside and prevent leaking during baking.
- Prepare Baking Pan: Lightly grease a baking pan with butter spray (such as Pam) or melted butter to prevent sticking and promote even cooking.
- Make Garlic Butter Sauce: In a small bowl, combine melted unsalted butter, garlic powder, garlic paste, and Italian seasoning. Mix well to create a flavorful garlic buttery mixture.
- Coat Biscuit Balls: Brush each cheese-filled biscuit ball generously with the garlic butter sauce. Sprinkle a pinch of salt over them for extra flavor and finish by sprinkling Parmesan cheese on top.
- Bake: Bake the biscuit balls in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown, starting to check at around 15 minutes to avoid overcooking.
- Final Touch: Once baked, brush the biscuit balls again with any remaining garlic butter sauce for an extra garlicky finish. Serve warm.
Notes
- Use fresh mozzarella for best melting texture.
- Make sure to seal the biscuit dough well to avoid cheese leakage during baking.
- Adjust garlic powder and paste quantities based on your garlic preference.
- These biscuit balls are best served warm but can be reheated in the oven.
- Optionally, add chopped herbs like parsley after baking for added freshness.
