Pillsbury Biscuit Garlic Butter Cheese Bombs are the ultimate comfort food—crispy on the outside, gooey on the inside, and packed with rich garlic butter flavor. These bite-sized delights are perfect for parties, game nights, or simply indulging in a cheesy snack. The best part? They’re incredibly easy to make using Pillsbury biscuits, making them a quick and satisfying treat.
Ingredients:
- 1 can of Pillsbury Grands! Biscuits
- 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, cut into small cubes
- 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon of fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
- Marinara sauce for dipping (optional)
Instructions:
Step 1: Preheat Your Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent the biscuits from sticking.
Step 2: Prepare the Biscuits
Open the can of Pillsbury Grands! Biscuits and separate them. Flatten each biscuit slightly with your hands or a rolling pin.
Step 3: Add the Cheese
Place a cube of mozzarella cheese in the center of each flattened biscuit. Carefully fold the edges of the biscuit around the cheese, ensuring it is fully enclosed. Pinch the seams to seal the cheese inside.
Step 4: Make the Garlic Butter
In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, and chopped parsley. Mix well to ensure the garlic and parsley are evenly distributed.
Step 5: Coat the Cheese Bombs
Dip each cheese-filled biscuit into the garlic butter mixture, ensuring it is well-coated. Place the coated biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, seam side down.
Step 6: Bake
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top of each biscuit. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 7: Serve
Remove the cheese bombs from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. For an extra touch, you can garnish them with a bit more fresh parsley. Serve warm with marinara sauce on the side for dipping.
Serving and Storage Tips for Pillsbury Biscuit Garlic Butter Cheese Bombs
Serving Tips:
- Serve Warm: Pillsbury Biscuit Garlic Butter Cheese Bombs are best enjoyed warm. The cheese inside is gooey and melty when freshly baked, providing the perfect texture and flavor.
- Dipping Sauces: Enhance the flavor by serving these cheese bombs with a variety of dipping sauces. Marinara sauce is a classic choice, but you can also offer ranch dressing, garlic aioli, or spicy sriracha mayo for an extra kick.
- Garnish: For an appealing presentation, garnish the cheese bombs with a sprinkle of fresh parsley or a dusting of grated Parmesan cheese. This not only adds a pop of color but also enhances the flavor.
- Appetizer Platter: Create a beautiful appetizer platter by pairing the cheese bombs with other finger foods like vegetable sticks, meatballs, or bruschetta.

- Refrigeration: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheating: To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-7 minutes or until warmed through. Avoid microwaving, as it may make them soggy.
