Step 3: Add the Flavor
To the bowl of dough pieces, add:
- Melted butter
- Ranch seasoning mix
- Garlic powder (if using)
Toss everything together until each piece is well coated.
🎯 The ranch mix is the game-changer here—it gives bold, savory flavor in every bite.

Step 4: Layer in the Cheese
Now toss the shredded cheese into the bowl and mix gently so it clings to the dough pieces. Don’t overmix—just enough to distribute.
🧀 You want little pockets of gooey cheese between the biscuit bites once baked.

Step 5: Arrange and Bake
Option A: Spoon about 4–5 pieces into each muffin cup for individual servings.
Option B: Spread the coated dough pieces onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer or in a small mound for a more shareable pull-apart style.
Bake for 15–20 minutes or until golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.

Step 6: Garnish and Serve
Once out of the oven, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for color and a pop of freshness.
Let them cool for a few minutes—then serve warm.
🕹️ Hosting tip: Keep them in a low oven (around 200°F) if you’re serving a little later, or reheat briefly before guests arrive.
