Description

If you’re looking for a simple yet indulgent treat to impress your guests or enjoy during family movie night, you must try these garlic butter cheese bombs. These delightful bites combine warm dough with a rich and gooey cheese filling, all wrapped in a fragrant garlic butter coating. Perfect as an appetizer or snack, these garlic butter cheese bombs will become a favorite in your household.


Ingredients

Scale

Dough

To make the base of our garlic butter cheese bombs, we need 2 cups of all-purpose flour. This flour creates a soft and pillowy dough that complements the cheesy filling perfectly.

Cheese

For the filling, use 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese. Mozzarella melts beautifully and provides that stretchy texture everyone loves.

Garlic

You’ll need 4 cloves of minced garlic to create that rich flavor. Fresh garlic adds a robust taste that elevates the entire dish.

Butter

Use 1/2 cup of unsalted butter to coat the bombs before baking. The melted butter adds richness and helps achieve a golden brown color.

Parsley

Finely chop 2 tablespoons of fresh parsley for garnish. Parsley not only adds color but also enhances the flavor profile with its freshness.

Step By Step Recipe: GARLIC BUTTER CHEESE BOMBS

Prepare the Dough

In a large bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour with 1 tablespoon of baking powder and a pinch of salt. Mix until evenly distributed. Gradually add in 3/4 cup of milk while stirring with a wooden spoon until the dough begins to form. Knead it gently on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth.

Make the Filling

In another bowl, mix 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese with minced garlic in a small bowl. Stir until well combined; this mixture will be used as the center of each bomb. Prepare small portions for easy assembly later.

Shape the Bombs

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Take a portion of dough about the size of a golf ball and flatten it in your palm. Place about 1 tablespoon of the cheese mixture in the center. Carefully fold the dough over the filling and roll it into a ball shape sealing it tightly.

Prepare Garlic Butter Mixture

Melt 1/2 cup of unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in minced garlic along with chopped parsley for added freshness. This mixture will coat our bomb before baking.

Bake Your Cheese Bombs

Place each shaped bomb on a greased baking sheet spaced apart to allow room for rising. Brush each one generously with the prepared garlic butter mixture using a pastry brush, ensuring every part is coated well.
