Ingredients
- 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough
- 4 oz mozzarella cheese, cut into small cubes
- 8 slices bacon, cut in half
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- Toothpicks (for securing bacon)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare the Biscuit Dough: Open the biscuit dough and separate it into individual biscuits. Cut each biscuit in half, so you have smaller pieces to work with.
- Assemble the Bacon Bombs: Take a small piece of biscuit dough, flatten it slightly, and place a cube of mozzarella cheese in the center. Fold the dough around the cheese, pinching the seams to seal it completely.
- Wrap in Bacon: Take half a slice of bacon and wrap it around the dough ball, securing it with a toothpick. Repeat with the remaining dough, cheese, and bacon.
- Bake: Arrange the bacon-wrapped dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the dough is golden brown.
- Add Garlic Butter: While the Bacon Bombs are baking, mix the melted butter with garlic powder and parsley. Once the bombs are done, brush them with the garlic butter for extra flavor.
- Serve: Remove the toothpicks and serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch or marinara.
Enjoy your crispy, cheesy Bacon Bombs—an addictive snack perfect for any occasion!
