Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bring @butter{10%tbsp} to room temperature. Keep @buttermilk biscuits{6%units} refrigerated until ready to roll out; they’re easier to work with when cold.

Heat a #large pan{} over medium-high heat. Add @bacon{6%slices}; cook, turning occasionally and adjusting heat if browning too quickly, until crispy, ~{6-10%minutes}. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Once cool enough to handle, roughly chop.

Meanwhile, wash and dry produce. Finely chop @scallions{4%units}, separating whites from greens. Peel and mince or grate @garlic{2%cloves}.

Place scallion whites, garlic, and 2 tbsp more butter in a #medium bowl{}; cover with plastic wrap. Microwave until butter has melted, ~{45-60%seconds}. Uncover and stir in @cream cheese{4%oz} until combined, then stir in @cheddar cheese{1%cup}, @monterey jack cheese{1%cup}, and chopped bacon. Taste and season with @salt{1%pinch} and @black pepper{1%pinch}.

Remove biscuits from package. Using a rolling pin, roll out each biscuit into a 3-inch round. Divide filling between biscuits (1 tbsp per round). Gently fold edges over filling and pinch tightly to close. Gently roll each stuffed biscuit into a ball. Double-check the seal after rolling to ensure the filling stays inside.

Lightly oil a #baking sheet{} with @cooking oil{1%tsp}. Place biscuit bombs, seam sides down, on the baking sheet. Bake on top rack until golden and puffed, ~{13-15%minutes}.

Meanwhile, in a #small bowl{}, combine scallion greens and softened butter. Microwave butter for ~{10%seconds} to soften if needed. Season with salt and pepper.

Let biscuit bombs cool ~{5%minutes}. Divide between plates and serve with scallion butter on the side.
