Step-by-Step Instructions

In a small bowl, mix melted butter, minced garlic, and Italian seasoning. - Brush and Bake
Brush each biscuit with the garlic butter mixture. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown. - Add Finishing Touches
As soon as the biscuits come out of the oven, brush them with any remaining garlic butter. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley on top. - Serve and Enjoy!
Serve warm and watch them disappear in seconds!
Tips for Success
- Seal Tightly: Make sure to seal the biscuits tightly to prevent cheese from oozing out during baking.

- Make Ahead: Assemble the cheese bombs ahead of time and refrigerate until ready to bake.

- Marinara Sauce: Perfect for dipping.

FAQs
Q: Can I use crescent rolls instead of biscuits?
A: Absolutely! Crescent rolls will work well, but the texture will be lighter and flakier.
Q: How do I store leftovers?
A: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven for best results.
Q: Can I freeze these?
A: Yes! Assemble the cheese bombs, freeze them on a baking sheet, then transfer them to a freezer bag. Bake straight from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time.
