Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Crispy Pickle Cheese Bites

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or lightly spraying it with nonstick spray.
In a mixing bowl, combine shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses, chopped dill pickles, and garlic powder. Optionally, fold in breadcrumbs.
Scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll them into bite-sized balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space in between.
Bake for about 10 minutes until golden brown. Watch as the tantalizing aroma fills your kitchen.
Remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Serve warm and enjoy!
