Here’s a rephrased version of your recipe, along with a couple of variations and tips:

Cheese-Stuffed Savory Muffins

Ingredients:

  • 1 can (8 pieces) refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup softened cream cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (optional)
  • 2 tbsp melted butter
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt, to taste

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven: Heat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a muffin tin.
  2. Prepare the Filling: Combine the cream cheese, mozzarella, Parmesan, and garlic powder in a bowl until smooth.
  3. Stuff the Biscuits: Flatten each biscuit dough piece into a round. Add a spoonful of the cheese mixture to the center, then fold and pinch the edges tightly to seal.
  4. Arrange in Muffin Tin: Place each stuffed biscuit seam-side down in the prepared muffin tin.
  5. Top with Butter and Herbs: Brush the tops with melted butter, sprinkle with parsley, and add a pinch of salt.
  6. Bake: Bake for 12–15 minutes or until the tops are golden and bubbly.
  7. Serve Warm: Let the muffins cool slightly before removing them from the tin. Serve warm and enjoy!

Recipe Variations:

  1. Add a Kick: Mix in chopped jalapeños or red pepper flakes into the cheese filling for a spicy twist.
  2. Herb & Garlic Boost: Add Italian seasoning or fresh minced garlic for extra flavor.
  3. Bacon Lover’s Option: Incorporate crumbled cooked bacon into the cheese filling.

Tips for Success:

  • Ensure the biscuit edges are sealed well to avoid cheese leaking out during baking.
  • For an extra crispy top, sprinkle additional Parmesan cheese before baking.
  • Serve with a side of marinara or ranch for dipping.
