Ingredients
- 16 ounces Bacon
- 16 ounces refrigerated biscuit dough (8 large biscuits)
- 6 ounces mozzarella cheese cut into 16 small pieces
- 3 large jalapeños seeded and minced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove to a paper towle-lined plate to drain. Once cool enough to handle, finely dice ro crumble the bacon. Set aside.
- Split each of the 8 biscuits in half to make 16 flat disks. Divide cheese into 16 equal portions.
- One biscuit at a time, add chunk of cheese and about 1/2 a teaspoon of bacon and jalapeno on dough and then wrap ends around to create a ball. Be sure to fully seal the dough so the cheese doesn't seep out.
- Once all the balls have formed, dip the top of each ball in any remaining bacon and jalapeno. Place on the prepared baking sheet with the bacon dipped side facing up.
- Bake until golden brown, about 10-15 minutes. Serve immediately so the cheese is nice and melty.
