Pepperoni Pizza Bombs Recipe

Step 1

Preparing the Cheese Mixture: In a bowl, combine 8 oz. of cream cheese, 8-12 oz. of shredded mozzarella, a sprinkle of garlic powder, approximately 5 oz. of quartered pepperoni, and 4-6 tbsp. of pecorino Romano. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly combined.

Step 2

Creating the Butter Seasoning: In another bowl, melt a stick of butter. To the melted butter, add Italian seasoning, 7-8 cloves of chopped fresh garlic, a dash of garlic powder, a sprinkle of parsley flakes, crushed red pepper to taste, and approximately 4-5 tbsp. of hot honey. Mix thoroughly to create a flavorful butter seasoning.

Step 3

Assembling the Pizza Bombs: Take the refrigerated biscuits and split them in half. Flatten each biscuit half and place a small dollop of pizza sauce in the center. Add a spoonful of the prepared cheese mixture on top of the sauce. Carefully roll up the biscuit, ensuring the filling is enclosed. Repeat this process for all the biscuit halves.

Step 4

Preparing the Pan: Grease a cast iron pan or a similar-sized oven-safe pan to ensure the pizza bombs don’t stick. Arrange the rolled-up pizza bombs closely together in the pan, leaving no elbow room. This proximity will create a cozy, baked-to-perfection result.

Step 5

Adding the Flavors: Pour the prepared butter seasoning over the pizza bombs, covering them generously. Sprinkle additional shredded mozzarella and parsley flakes on top for an extra burst of flavor.

Step 6

Baking Time: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the pan with the pizza bombs in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 25 minutes. If desired, you can increase the temperature to 400°F (200°C) for an additional minute or two to achieve a golden brown finish.

Step 7
