Ingredients
  

Bread Base
  • 2 cans refrigerated biscuit dough Grand size (16.3 oz each)
Garlic Herb Butter
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 4-5 cloves garlic minced
  • 0.25 cup fresh parsley finely chopped
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper
Cheese Layer
  • 1.5 cups mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 0.5 cup parmesan cheese grated

Equipment

  • Bundt pan
  • Mixing bowls
  • Kitchen shears or knife
  • Whisk

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously grease a Bundt pan with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. Open biscuit cans and cut each biscuit into quarters. Roll pieces slightly to form rough balls.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together melted butter, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper.
  4. Toss the dough balls in the butter mixture until evenly coated (or dip individually).
  5. Place half of the dough balls into the prepared pan. Sprinkle with half of the mozzarella and parmesan.
  6. Layer the remaining dough balls on top, followed by the remaining cheese. Pour any leftover butter mixture over the top.
  7. Bake for 30-40 minutes until deep golden brown. Cover loosely with foil if top browns too quickly.
  8. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a serving plate. Serve warm.

Notes

Serve with marinara sauce for dipping.
