Transform freezer rolls into these Easy Garlic Cheese Bombs. Soft bread filled with melty, gooey cheese is baked to golden brown perfection and brushed with garlic butter. Perfect for spaghetti night or just as a snack, the whole family will love these!
8 frozen Texas Rolls thawed, I like Rhodes brand
4 sticks mozzarella cheese cut into 16 pieces
4 tablespoons salted butter melted
2 cloves garlic minced
1 Tablespoon parsley flakes freshly chopped or dried
Instructions
If using frozen dough, start by thawing it. Place 8 frozen rolls on a plate, cover with plastic wrap, and move to the fridge for at least 4 hours or up to overnight. They should double in size.
Once your rolls have defrosted, cut up mozzarella sticks into approximately 1" pieces.
Preheat the oven to 350° F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
Using the palms of your hands, flatten each dough ball into a round disk, then place two pieces of cheese into the center.
Pinch together the edges (really well - you don't want the cheese to melt out!) and place them seam side down onto your prepared baking sheet. Repeat until you're out of rolls.
Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until just starting to brown.
While the rolls are baking, in a microwave safe dish (or in a saucepan over low heat), melt the butter.
Once melted, remove from the microwave (be careful - it might be hot!) and stir in the minced garlic and the parsley flakes.
Once browned, remove the rolls from the oven and evenly brush each with the garlic butter mixture.
Let cool slightly then enjoy the cheesy goodness!
Notes
I use Rhodes Texas Rolls. A can of biscuits (Pillsbury Grands) will work as well.
Use your favorite cheese - I often use mozzarella cheese sticks because we always have them on hand but fresh mozzarella or colby jack, pepper jack, cheddar, would be good.
Freshly minced or garlic in oil can be used.
If using unsalted butter, add a pinch of salt to the butter mixture.
Store leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 3 days.
