Blueberry Cream Cheese Biscuit Bombs

[Mosca]

We made these as part of breakfast when I went to Mason Dixon BBQ’s Ribs and Chicken Class. They are extremely easy, and absolutely KILLER. You can obviously substitute in apple, strawberry, cherry, etc.

I have saved this for future reference. I’d love to do this with raspberries.

You asked, you get!

Man those look good - although I envisioned them with MORE topping! lol

[Mosca]

They are stuffed with the stuff that’s on top, too. I’m going to give these a test run in the next week or so, and a smaller batch will mean more topping/filling:biscuit ratio, so they’ll probably look more like something you’d find at Krispy Kreem!

Mosca, those look fantastic! Maybe you should send me some to try before you serve them to your Family. A full pan would probably ship better. Yum.

I want to eat these right now!

I agree! Make Blueberry Cream Cheese Biscuit Bombs not war!

[Mosca]

First go through: the tablespoon of each filling is WAAAY too much, you can’t make a decent seam. Use about half that. Also: doesn’t work with buttermilk biscuits, which I bought one can of by mistake.

Looks da Bomb to me!

Okay, more notes.

1) Half a tablespoon of rub for 2 dozen biscuits isn’t nearly enough. Use about twice that. It’s just sugar and blueberry powder. The biscuits aren’t quite sweet enough otherwise.

2) The instructions say to put the cream cheese mixture in, then the blueberry filling. No. You’re going to have to mix the blueberry filling in with the cream cheese mixture. I went back and checked my photos, that’s how we did it in the class. Otherwise it is still runny at the end, and even a good seam gets broken.

3) Following up on the previous note, you can see that the TOTAL filling for each bomb is about 1 tablespoon, not the 2 tablespoons you would have by following the original recipe.

Otherwise, it’s pretty good, as good as I remember.
