These golden-brown, fluffy biscuits are filled with gooey mozzarella cheese and topped with a sprinkle of parsley. Served with a side of marinara sauce, they make the perfect appetizer or snack.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
- 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
- Marinara sauce (for serving)
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the cold butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the texture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in the shredded Parmesan cheese.
- Gradually add the milk, stirring until just combined.
- Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently.
- Roll the dough to about 1/2-inch thickness and use a round biscuit cutter to cut out circles.
- Place a small piece of mozzarella cheese in the center of each dough circle, fold over, and pinch the edges to seal.
- Arrange the cheese-filled dough balls on the baking sheet.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
