Knot Your Typical Biscuit

So I saw this recipe that looked unique on TastyKitchen and I was too excited to find that I had all the ingredients already (BEST FEELING)! Perfect!  So I followed their recipe:

  • 1 can (12 Ounces) Pillsbury® Golden Layers® Refrigerated Buttermilk Biscuits
  • ¼ cups Canola Oil
  • 3 Tablespoons Grated Parmesan Cheese
  • ½ teaspoons Garlic Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Oregano
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Parsley


Except I changed the garlic powder to fresh minced garlic, and the Canola Oil into Olive Oil (my best friend when it comes to cooking).

I followed these Directions:
Roll each biscuit into a 12-inch rope and tie into a knot; tuck ends under. Place 2 inches apart on a greased baking sheet. Bake at 400° for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown.
In a large bowl, combine the remaining ingredients; brush the warm knots with the mixture. Yield: 10 knots.

I did exactly that.  But after the fourth one, an idea sprung in my head and a grabbed the shredded mozzarella cheese from the fridge and sort of stuffed the 5th roll with some.  I also sprinkled some on top of 2 of the biscuits to see how they would turn out.  



Honestly, they were kinda blah
As a result, I'm going to try this readjusted recipe the next time:
. 1 can Pillsbury® Thin Pizza Crust, or 1 sheet of Peppridge Farm Puff Pastry Sheets
. 1/4 cup Olive Oil
. 2 Tbs Grated Parmasean Cheese
. 1/2 Tsp minced garlic paste
. 1 Tsp dried oregano, or Thyme (I think would be equally tasty)
. 1 Tsp dried parsley leaves
. Dash of salt
(if more is needed, just make add more olive oil and parmasean cheese)
Okay as directions go, I would say to roll out about an inch wide strip of dough into about a foot long, and before tying it into a knot, brush/soak the entire rope- that way tying it would be easier, and the entire roll would be soaked with flavor. 
Second, I would definitely add shredded mozzarella to the middle of them, it doesn't add much flavor, but enough to make it gooey and moist! Then tie them and do exactly the previous routine of tucking the ends under then placing them in the oven.  
I hope this would be better! I'll try them again and post if it was a successful change or not!
