Ingredients

• 2 cans (16 ounces each) refrigerated biscuit dough
• 2 cups shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese
• 1 can (10.5 ounces) cream of chicken soup
• ½ cup sour cream
• 3 tablespoons melted butter
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

How to Make Cheesy Garlic Biscuit Bubble-Up Casserole

1. Prepare the Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

2. Cut the Biscuits

Separate the refrigerated biscuits and cut each one into quarters.

Place the biscuit pieces in a large mixing bowl.

3. Make the Creamy Sauce

In a separate bowl, stir together the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, melted butter, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning.

Mix until smooth and well combined.

4. Combine Everything

Add about half of the shredded cheese to the biscuit pieces. Pour the creamy sauce over the top and gently toss until the biscuit pieces are evenly coated.

Transfer everything to the prepared baking dish and spread it into an even layer.

5. Add More Cheese

Sprinkle the remaining cheese evenly over the casserole.

6. Bake

Bake uncovered for approximately 30–40 minutes, or until the biscuit pieces are puffed and cooked through and the cheese is melted and golden brown.

If the cheese browns too quickly, loosely cover the casserole with foil for the remaining baking time.

7. Rest and Serve

Let the casserole cool for about 5–10 minutes before serving. This allows the creamy sauce to settle while keeping the biscuits warm and fluffy.

Tips for the Best Bubble-Up Casserole

Cut the biscuit dough into similar-sized pieces so they bake evenly.

Don’t overcrowd the baking dish with extra ingredients, as the biscuit pieces need room to puff.

For the best texture, make sure the center biscuits are fully cooked before removing the casserole from the oven.

If you prefer a stronger garlic flavor, add a little minced fresh garlic to the melted butter.

Easy Variations

• Chicken: Add 2 cups of cooked shredded chicken for a complete meal.
• Bacon cheddar: Stir in cooked crumbled bacon and use extra cheddar.
• Broccoli: Add small steamed broccoli florets.
• Ranch: Add a packet of ranch seasoning to the creamy sauce.
• Spicy: Add diced jalapeños or a pinch of red pepper flakes.

What to Serve With Biscuit Bubble-Up Casserole

Serve this casserole with green salad, roasted vegetables, steamed broccoli, green beans, or corn.

If you add cooked chicken, it can easily stand alone as a hearty one-dish dinner.

How to Store Leftovers

Store leftover casserole in an airtight container or cover the baking dish tightly. Refrigerate for up to 3–4 days.

Reheat individual portions in the microwave, or warm the casserole in a 350°F oven until heated through.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use different biscuit dough?

Yes. Any refrigerated homestyle or buttermilk biscuit dough should work. Baking times may vary slightly depending on the size of the biscuits.

Can I add meat?

Absolutely. Cooked shredded chicken, ground beef, sausage, or bacon can all be added for a heartier casserole.

Can I make this ahead of time?

For the best texture, assemble it shortly before baking. You can prepare the creamy sauce and cut the biscuits ahead of time, then combine everything just before putting it in the oven.
