The cooking process explained
Making Cheesy Pepperoni Pizza Bombs is simpler than it may seem! You’ll start by preheating your oven and preparing your workspace with parchment paper. Flatten refrigerated biscuit dough, stuff it with gooey mozzarella and mini pepperoni, and seal it up into little balls. A quick brush with seasoned melted butter before baking gives them that irresistible golden crust we all crave. In just about 15 minutes, you’ll have a tray full of cheesy goodness ready for dipping into marinara or pizza sauce.
What you’ll need
To create these delightful pizza bombs, gather the following ingredients:
- 2 tbsp melted butter
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough
- 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
