There\u2019s a time and place for impressive snacks<\/u><\/a>\u2014sit-down dinners, cocktail parties, or anytime you put on \u201cgood clothes\u201d\u2014but what about no-makeup-braless days? I\u2019m-staying-inside Saturday nights? These happen to be the perfect occasions for air fryer biscuit balls stuffed with cheese. They\u2019re simple to make, quick to cook, and ideal for enjoying on the couch. (Sharing is up to you.)<\/p>\n

“Biscuits and cheese” is a comfort food combination that lifts the spirit and sticks to your ribs. With a swipe of butter and a sprinkle of garlic salt, these cheese-stuffed biscuit balls are flavorful to the last bite. I use canned biscuit dough for this recipe. This type of dough works best because it\u2019s much more malleable than homemade flaky biscuit dough which isn\u2019t meant to be overworked. It also makes the recipe faster and much easier. Ahem, and maybe I had two cans of biscuit dough leftover from Thanksgiving. I imagine you might too.<\/p>\n

I used low-moisture mozzarella for the cheese pocket in the center. It\u2019s the most underrated of the mozz family, and invaluable in most recipes where stretch is desired. The low-moisture variety has a more concentrated dairy flavor and a good balance of salt.\u00a0 It packs all the stretchiness of fresh mozzarella, but none of the excess water. While that might seem a small difference, that extra water makes it less flavorful, and more importantly in this case, it can prevent the dough from fully cooking inside a biscuit pocket. If you don\u2019t care much about stretch, you could use any other low-moisture melting cheese, like cheddar, Swiss, or gouda.<\/p>\n

If you’re going to make these, you’ll need an air fryer:<\/h3>\n
