Best ways to enjoy it
These Gooey Mozzarella Biscuit Bombs are naturally delicious on their own, but they can be even more enjoyable with some dipping sauces.

Storage and reheating tips
Leftover biscuit bombs? No problem! You can store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. When you’re ready to enjoy them again, simply reheat in the oven at 350°F for about 10-15 minutes. To freeze, place the cooled biscuit bombs in a freezer-safe bag or container for up to 1 month. Just remember, it’s important to let them cool completely before freezing to maintain their texture.
Helpful cooking tips
For the best results, ensure your cheese is cold! This helps create that perfect gooey center as it melts while baking. If you’re short on time, you can use store-bought biscuit dough, but if you’re feeling adventurous, homemade dough can take your bombs to the next level. Additionally, brushing the melted butter on top not only enhances the flavor but also gives them a beautifully golden appearance.
Creative twists
If you want to shake things up, try varying the cheese! Incorporate sharp cheddar for a stronger flavor or blend in some herbs like basil or oregano for an Italian flair. You can also top your bombs with garlic powder before baking or sprinkle some everything bagel seasoning for an added crunch.
