Gooey Goodness: Cheesy Mozzarella Biscuit Bombs

Cheesy Mozzarella Biscuit Bombs

Yields: 12 bombs

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

1 cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cubed
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
¼ cup milk
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the Parmesan cheese and milk until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the mozzarella cheese.
Scoop the dough out by rounded tablespoons and roll into balls. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool slightly before serving.

Tips:

For a richer flavor, use grated Gruyere cheese instead of mozzarella.
You can also add a pinch of dried herbs, such as rosemary or thyme, to the dough for extra flavor.
If you don’t have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
Be sure to not overmix the dough, as this will make the biscuit bombs tough.
