Equipment

  • Large muffin tin
  • Sharp knife
  • Chopping surface

Ingredients

  • 1 tube store-bought biscuit dough
  • 15 slices pepperoni
  • 2 cups grated mozzarella
  • 8 tablespoons ½ cup unsalted butter
  • Dried parsley flakes
  • 1 teaspoon garlic seasoning salt

Instructions

  • Get your oven heating to 375°F (190°C) and coat your large muffin tin with non-stick spray.
  • Divide each raw biscuit into four pieces and toss them into a mixing container.
  • Chop the pepperoni slices into quarters and add to your biscuit chunks along with the grated mozzarella. Toss everything together until well combined.
  • Scoop about 6 biscuit pieces with their cheese and pepperoni coating into each muffin hollow, making sure all cups have roughly the same amount.
  • Slice half your butter into 12 small chunks. Top each filled cup with one butter chunk.
  • Slide the tin into your preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until they're golden and the cheese is bubbling.
  • While they bake, melt the remaining butter in a dish, then stir in the garlic salt and parsley flakes.
  • Once baked, immediately paint each hot cup with your seasoned butter mixture.
  • Let them sit briefly to cool before carefully removing. Enjoy while still warm.
