Ingredients:

1 tablespoon of baking powder
1 small spoon of salt
Half a teaspoon of baking soda
1/2 cup of butter without salt, cut into small pieces and cold.
1 cup of buttermilk
12 small pieces of mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup of butter that has been melted
1 teaspoon of powdered garlic
1 tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley
PREPARATION:
1. Heat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and cover a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a big bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda together using a whisk.
3. Add cold butter cut into small pieces to the mixture.
Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until it looks like coarse crumbs.
4. Add the buttermilk and mix until the dough forms.
5. Place the dough on a surface with flour and softly press it a few times.
Flatten the dough into a rectangle that is about 1/2 inch thick. Divide it into 12 equal parts.
Put a piece of mozzarella cheese in the middle of each square of dough and wrap the dough around it, pressing the edges together to close.
Place the biscuit bombs with the seam side facing down on the baking sheet that has been prepared.
Brush the top with melted butter and sprinkle some garlic powder on it.
Bake for 15-18 minutes until the food is golden brown and the cheese is melted and gooey.
After baking, brush the dish with the rest of the melted butter and add some fresh parsley on top.
Heat it up and eat it!
