Ingredients

• 2 cans buttermilk biscuits (not the flaky kind)
• 20 balls mozzarella fresca ciliegine (cherry size) or mozzarella cut into cubes
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 6 cloves garlic, minced
• pinch crushed red pepper flakes

• Heat olive oil over medium low heat in a skillet. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes. Sauté for 1-2 minutes. Add in the butter and stir until melted. Slowly pour in the wine and salt (it may splatter) and continue cooking for 1-2 minutes.
• Roll the dough balls into the butter.
• Place the balls in a mini muffin pan (open side up).
• Combine the shredded cheeses and pile on each dough ball.
• Bake in a 450-degree oven for 8-10 minutes.
