Ingredients
Scale
Muffin Base
- 2 cans (16 oz each) refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits per can)
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- ½ cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- ½ cup Parmesan cheese, grated
Garlic Butter
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
Garnish
- Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Prep the Biscuits: Quarter the refrigerated biscuit dough into smaller pieces to ensure they fit well into muffin cups. Lightly grease the muffin tin to prevent sticking and facilitate easy removal.
- Make Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, combine melted unsalted butter with minced garlic, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and optional red pepper flakes. Mix thoroughly to blend all the flavors.
- Coat Dough and Cheese: Toss the biscuit dough pieces along with shredded mozzarella, cheddar, and grated Parmesan cheese in the prepared garlic butter mixture until evenly coated, ensuring each piece is flavorful.
- Fill Muffin Cups: Spoon the butter-coated biscuit and cheese mixture into each muffin cup, pressing lightly to fill the space. Top each muffin generously with additional shredded cheese.
- Bake the Muffins: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the muffin tin for 18–20 minutes or until the muffins turn golden brown on top and are cooked through.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool slightly. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for an added burst of color and freshness before serving.
Notes
- For extra spice, add more red pepper flakes.
- You can substitute shredded cheese varieties to suit taste preferences.
- Ensure biscuits are fully cooked by checking for golden color and firm texture.
