Pillsbury Biscuit Garlic Butter Cheese Bombs

I first made these Pillsbury Biscuit Garlic Butter Cheese Bombs on a game day when I needed a snack that was warm cheesy and ready in under 30 minutes so I grabbed a can of biscuits stuffed them with cheese and brushed them with garlic butter then watched them puff up into golden pillows that oozed melty goodness. The first one disappeared in seconds and the rest were gone before halftime.

Now they’re one of my go-to quick appetizers because they’re incredibly easy to make but deliver big comfort food vibes every time. Whether you’re hosting friends or just need a little bite of cheesy joy these biscuit bombs never disappoint and I always keep a can of dough on hand just for these moments.

Ingredients

• Here’s what I use for this recipe. You can always make substitutions if you prefer!
• Pillsbury biscuits – The quick and flaky base that turns golden and puffy in the oven
• Mozzarella cheese – Melts into a gooey center that stretches with every bite
• Butter – Used for brushing the tops and adding richness
• Garlic – Infuses the butter with bold flavor
• Parsley – A pop of freshness and color after baking
• Italian seasoning – Adds extra flavor and that pizzeria-style vibe
• Salt – Just a touch enhances the flavor of the butter and herbs

Tools You’ll Need

• Baking sheet – For baking the biscuit bombs evenly
• Parchment paper – Prevents sticking and makes cleanup easy
• Small bowl – For mixing the garlic butter
• Pastry brush – To evenly coat the biscuits with the garlic butter
• Knife – For cutting cheese into stuffing-size chunks
• Oven mitts – Because those cheesy centers stay hot!

Instructions

Step 1:

I preheat the oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to keep things tidy.

Step 2:

I open the can of biscuits and flatten each one slightly in my hand then I place a cube of mozzarella in the center of each round.

Step 3:

I fold the edges of the biscuit around the cheese pinching them tightly to seal and then I roll them gently into a ball and place them seam-side down on the baking sheet.

Step 4:

In a small bowl I melt the butter and stir in minced garlic Italian seasoning and a pinch of salt then I brush each biscuit with the garlic butter before baking.

Step 5:

I bake the cheese bombs for 12–15 minutes until they’re golden and puffed up then I brush them again with the leftover garlic butter and sprinkle parsley on top before serving warm.

Tips

Make sure the biscuits are sealed tightly around the cheese so it doesn’t leak while baking. I’ve also used cheddar or pepper jack for a flavor twist and they’re equally delicious. If you want extra crispy tops you can broil them for 1–2 minutes at the end—just watch closely so they don’t burn!

Ways to Serve

These Pillsbury Biscuit Garlic Butter Cheese Bombs are perfect for parties movie nights or alongside soups and salads. I love dipping them in marinara ranch or even honey mustard for a fun flavor boost. They also make a great side for pasta night when you want something extra to soak up sauce.
