How to Make Ooey-Gooey Maple Biscuit Bombs Bites With Butter Kick
Preparing these irresistible bites is a breeze, with just a few simple steps to follow:
Step 1: Prep Work
Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly greasing a 12-cup muffin tin. In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold, unsalted butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the heavy cream just until a soft dough forms.
Step 2: Main Cooking Process
Using a small ice cream scoop or spoon, scoop the dough into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full. Bake the biscuit bombs for 15-18 minutes, or until they’re golden brown and irresistibly fluffy.
Step 3: Final Steps/Assembly
While the biscuit bombs are baking, prepare the ooey-gooey maple glaze. In a small saucepan, whisk together the maple syrup and a pinch of cayenne pepper. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly, about 3-5 minutes. As soon as the biscuit bombs come out of the oven, brush the tops generously with the maple glaze, allowing it to drip down the sides for maximum gooey goodness.
Recipe Variations & Tips
- Extra Indulgence: Try swirling a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream into the center of each biscuit bomb before glazing.
- Flavor Twists: Experiment with different spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, or even a touch of espresso powder in the glaze.
- Festive Flair: Roll the tops of the biscuit bombs in chopped pecans or walnuts for a delightful crunch.
- Make-Ahead: The biscuit dough can be made a day or two in advance and stored in the refrigerator until ready to bake.
