These cheesy stuffed biscuits are soft, golden, and filled with a warm, melty cheese center that makes every bite irresistible. They’re simple to prepare, require only basic ingredients, and make the perfect snack, appetizer, or side dish for any meal. The texture is fluffy on the inside with a lightly crisp top, while the cheese melts beautifully for a comforting and satisfying bite. They’re also great for dipping in marinara sauce, garlic butter, or served on their own.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 4 tablespoons cold butter, cubed
- 3/4 cup milk
- 12–14 cheese cubes (mozzarella recommended)
- 1 beaten egg for brushing
- Parsley or herbs for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
- Add the cold butter cubes. Rub them into the dry ingredients until the mixture looks crumbly.
- Pour in the milk and gently mix until a soft dough forms. Avoid over-kneading.
- Divide the dough into equal portions. Flatten each portion in your hand.
- Place a cheese cube in the center of each dough piece. Fold the dough around it and pinch the edges tightly to seal.
- Arrange the stuffed biscuits on the baking tray.
- Brush the tops with the beaten egg for a shiny golden finish.
- Bake for 15–18 minutes or until golden brown.
- Sprinkle with parsley or your favorite herbs and serve warm so the cheese stays melty.
