Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 can (16.3 ounces) refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup cooked and crumbled bacon bits
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
Seasonings
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking pan or line with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, garlic powder, dried parsley, and black pepper.
- Separate the biscuit dough into 8 individual biscuits. On a clean surface, flatten each biscuit slightly.
- Place a small amount of shredded mozzarella cheese and a sprinkle of bacon bits in the center of each flattened biscuit.
- Carefully gather the edges of the dough over the filling and pinch tightly to seal, forming a ball.
- Dip each sealed dough ball into the seasoned melted butter mixture, ensuring they are fully coated.
- Arrange the coated dough balls in the prepared baking pan, leaving space between them.
Baking
- Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
- Once out of the oven, lightly brush with any remaining seasoned butter if desired.
