Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 2: Prepare the Biscuit Dough

1. Open the can of biscuit dough.
2. Cut each biscuit into quarters or bite-sized pieces.

3. Fold in half of the cheddar and mozzarella cheese.
4. Mix gently until everything is evenly coated.

Step 5: Bake

1. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
2. Spread evenly with a spatula.
3. Bake uncovered for 30–35 minutes, until biscuits are cooked through and golden.

Step 6: Add Cheese Topping

1. Remove casserole from the oven.
2. Sprinkle remaining cheese evenly over the top.
3. Return to the oven and bake for 10–15 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 7: Rest and Serve

1. Remove from oven and let rest for 5–10 minutes before serving.
2. Garnish with parsley or extra pepper if desired.
