Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Mix melted butter and 2 tbsp of the shredded parmesan in a small bowl. (Save other 2 tbsp shredded parmesan for next step)
Carefully open can of biscuit dough. It should be pre-sliced into 8 pieces for you. Take one pre-cut biscuit and flatten in palm of hand.
Place pinch of bacon, sun dried tomato, a sprinkle of garlic and reserved parmesan cheese into center and then form it into a ball. Repeat until all 8 are formed.
Cut each ball into quarters. Dredge one quarter piece in the butter/parmesan mixture and then place into lined or sprayed muffin tin cup. Sprinkle with mozzarella.
Repeat 3 more times until you have all 4 pieces pushed into ONE muffin cup, with mozzarella sprinkled IN BETWEEN each. Sprinkle more mozzarella on top. Repeat until all 8 muffin cups are full.
Bake at 350 degrees for 17-20 minutes, or until tops are golden brown or desired doneness. Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes
These are best served warm, but can made ahead of time and then warmed right before serving to save time. They also freeze well, but I'd be really surprised if you have any left over to freeze!
