HOW TO MAKE CHEESY GARLIC BITES

Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 450 degrees.

Step 2: After opening a can of biscuits, flatten each biscuit.

Step 3: Drain first the liquid from the mozzarella container, then place the mozzarella ball in the middle of the flattened biscuit. Wrap the dough to make a ball.

Step 4: In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes to the hot oil and saute for about a minute or two. Stir in the butter until melted, then gradually pour in the wine and season with salt. Cook for another 1 to 2 minutes.

Step 5: Into the butter, roll the dough balls. Shift the balls open-side up in a mini muffin pan.

Step 6: Mix the shredded cheese, then add a heap on each dough ball.

Step 7: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake the dough balls for about 8 to 10 minutes.

Step 8: When done, take the pan out of the oven and brush the bites with the rest of the butter. To taste, sprinkle them with salt and basil. Enjoy the Cheesy Garlic Bites warm!
