I keep feeling like it should be cool out, but when I step outside it is still hot and humid. That is what September is like in the south. However, it’s football season, and these cheese bombs are great football food. Soft and cheesy, with a crunchy top, they are quite tasty.
Using refrigerated biscuit dough makes this recipe easy. Simply flatten the biscuits, add some mozzarella, and pull all the edges up to seal. Make sure you pinch the dough tight so that the cheese stays enclosed.
Next comes a butter bath and the crunchy, garlicky topping.
Upon baking, these cheese bombs turn a beautiful golden color.
My family just loved these. They also make a great accompaniment to pizza or pasta.
