Ingredients
Scale
Dough and Cheese
- 1 tube refrigerated biscuit dough (16 ounces)
- 4 ounces mozzarella cheese, cut into eight 1-inch square cubes
Butter Mixture
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (or to taste)
- ½ teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C) and line a baking sheet with a Silpat mat or aluminum foil sprayed lightly with cooking oil to prevent sticking.
- Prepare Cheese Filling: Take each biscuit from the tube and place one cube of mozzarella cheese in its center. Carefully wrap the dough around the cheese, sealing it fully to encase the cheese inside.
- Arrange Biscuits: Place the wrapped biscuits seam side down on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are evenly spaced to allow for baking expansion.
- Bake Biscuits: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake the biscuits for about 10 minutes or until they turn lightly golden brown and cooked through.
- Make Butter Mixture: While biscuits bake, melt the unsalted butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Stir in Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and salt thoroughly to combine all the flavors.
- Brush and Garnish: Once the biscuits are baked, remove them from the oven and immediately brush the tops with the prepared garlic butter mixture for a rich finish. Sprinkle finely chopped fresh parsley over the warm biscuits.
- Serve Warm: Serve the stuffed cheese breads warm for the best gooey cheese texture and flavorful bite. Perfect for snacks or alongside meals.
Notes
- You can substitute mozzarella with other melty cheeses like cheddar or provolone for different flavors.
- Adjust garlic powder and salt according to your taste preference.
- Ensure the cheese is well enclosed in the dough to avoid it leaking during baking.
- Brush biscuits immediately after baking for maximum butter absorption.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat in the oven for best texture.
