Buffalo Chicken Biscuit Bombs are a deliciously spicy and cheesy fusion of tender shredded buffalo chicken wrapped in fluffy biscuit dough. Baked to golden perfection and brushed with a flavorful ranch butter glaze, these handheld bites are perfect for game days, parties, or satisfying snacks. Served with a side of ranch or blue cheese dressing, they offer a harmonious balance of heat, creaminess, and buttery goodness in every bite.

Ingredients

Scale

Filling

  • 3/4 cup shredded cooked chicken
  • 1/4 cup Frank’s RedHot buffalo wing sauce
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese (optional)

Dough

  • 1 (12-ounce) can Pillsbury biscuit dough

Glaze

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 teaspoons ranch seasoning

Additional

  • Cooking spray
  • Ranch and/or blue cheese dressing, for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and place your oven rack in the center position. Grease an 8-inch round baking pan well with cooking spray to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
  2. Mix Buffalo Chicken Filling: In a medium bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken, buffalo wing sauce, mayonnaise, and kosher salt. Mix thoroughly until the chicken is well coated with the spicy, creamy sauce.
  3. Flatten Biscuit Dough: Separate the biscuit dough into individual rounds. Using your fingers, gently flatten each round until it is about 1/4 inch thick to create a base for stuffing.
  4. Add Filling and Cheese: Place about one tablespoon of the buffalo chicken mixture onto the center of each flattened biscuit round. Evenly divide the shredded Monterey Jack cheese and optional blue cheese over the chicken mixture.
  5. Shape Biscuit Bombs: Carefully gather up the edges of each biscuit dough round around the filling and pinch them together tightly to seal completely. Shape each filled biscuit into a smooth ball and place seam-side down in the prepared baking pan, leaving slight space between each for expansion.
  6. Prepare Ranch Butter Glaze: In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with the ranch seasoning until combined. Brush this flavorful glaze generously over the tops of each biscuit bomb to add a savory, herby crust.
  7. Bake and Glaze Again: Bake the biscuit bombs for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the tops start turning golden brown. Remove from oven and brush the tops once more with the ranch butter mixture. Return to the oven and bake an additional 5 minutes, until golden and fully cooked through.
  8. Serve and Enjoy: Allow the biscuit bombs to cool slightly before transferring them to a serving platter. Serve warm with ranch or blue cheese dressing on the side for dipping, enhancing the bold buffalo flavors.

Notes

  • Use pre-cooked shredded chicken such as rotisserie or leftover grilled chicken for best results.
  • Flatten biscuit dough evenly to ensure uniform cooking and avoid thick edges.
  • Seal the dough tightly around the filling to prevent leaks during baking.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan; leave space between biscuit bombs for proper rising and browning.
  • Optional blue cheese adds a tangy, creamy punch but can be omitted if preferred.
  • These can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for longer storage.
  • Reheat in a 350°F oven for 8–10 minutes if refrigerated or 15–20 minutes wrapped in foil if reheating from frozen.
  • For a healthier option, use reduced-fat cheese and light mayonnaise, or substitute whole wheat biscuit dough.
