🥓🧀 Bacon-Wrapped Cheese Bombs
A delicious twist on classic comfort food! Crispy, smoky bacon wrapped around golden biscuit dough with gooey, melty cheese in the center. Perfect as an appetizer, snack, or party treat.
🛒 Ingredients
1 can (16 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough
8 oz mozzarella cheese, cut into 16 small cubes
16 slices bacon
2 tbsp butter, melted
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp Italian seasoning
2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley, optional
Toothpicks
👩🍳 Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil and lightly grease it.
Prepare the dough: Separate the biscuit dough into 16 pieces. Flatten each piece slightly.
Add the cheese: Place one cube of mozzarella in the center of each piece of dough. Carefully fold the dough around the cheese and pinch the edges tightly to completely seal it.
Wrap with bacon: Wrap one slice of bacon around each dough-covered cheese ball. Secure with a toothpick if needed.
Make the garlic butter: In a small bowl, combine melted butter, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and Parmesan cheese.
Coat: Brush each bacon-wrapped cheese bomb generously with the seasoned butter mixture.
Bake: Arrange them seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the bacon is crisp and the biscuit dough is golden brown.
Finish: Brush with any remaining garlic butter and sprinkle with fresh parsley.
Rest and serve: Let them cool for 5 minutes before serving. Remove toothpicks and enjoy while the cheese is still warm and gooey!
