- Pillsbury Biscuits: Grab a can of refrigerated biscuits; they’ll serve as the perfect fluffy base for our cheesy bites.
- Garlic Powder: Use fresh garlic if you love intensity; otherwise, garlic powder works like a charm.
- Butter: Always unsalted so you can control the saltiness; melted just adds that irresistible richness.

Let’s Make it together
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup later.
Open the Dough: Carefully peel open the can of biscuits. Watch out—those pop open faster than you can say “cheesy goodness.”
Melt the Butter: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt about half a cup of butter until it’s bubbly. The aroma will get you excited!
Add Flavors: Stir in garlic powder and chopped parsley into the melted butter until well combined—this mixture is pure magic.
Coat the Biscuits: Dip each biscuit into the butter mixture until fully coated. Place them on the lined baking sheet as if they’re getting ready for their big debut.
Add Cheese**: Top each biscuit with a generous handful of shredded cheese. Don’t hold back—this is where all that gooeyness comes from!
Bake Until Golden**: Pop them into your preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or until they’re golden brown and bubbly. The sight alone will have everyone drooling.
Now that sounds simple enough! You’ve just created something extraordinary from everyday ingredients—all while keeping it fun and engaging!
