Step 4: Prepare the Garlic Butter
In a small bowl, mix:
- melted butter
- minced garlic
- parsley
- Parmesan
- salt & pepper
Stir until the mixture is smooth and fragrant.
Step 5: Brush the Cheese Bites
Place your rolled cheese bites on a parchment-lined baking tray.
Brush each one generously with the garlic butter mixture, saving a little for after baking.
Step 6: Bake Until Golden
Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 12–15 minutes, or until the bites puff up and turn a lovely golden brown.
They should smell buttery, garlicky, and irresistible.
Step 7: Brush With More Garlic Butter
Once out of the oven, brush the remaining garlic butter over the warm bites.
This final coating gives them extra shine, flavor, and softness.
Step 8: Serve Warm
Enjoy immediately while the cheese is still melty.
Serve with marinara, ranch, garlic sauce, or simply eat them plain—they’re wonderful either way.
💡 Tips for Perfect Garlic Butter Cheese Bites
✔ Use low-moisture mozzarella
It melts beautifully and stays inside without releasing too much water.
✔ Don’t overfill the dough
Too much cheese will cause leaks.
✔ Seal very well
Pinch tightly, then roll again for a smooth finish.
✔ Add herbs or spices
Italian seasoning, oregano, chives, or chili flakes add extra character.
✔ Make them ahead
Assemble the bites, freeze them, and bake straight from frozen (just add 3–4 minutes).
