Wrap the mozzarella: Take a slice of bacon and wrap it around each mozzarella cube, securing it with a toothpick. Repeat for all mozzarella cubes.
Season the bacon bombs: Place the wrapped mozzarella bombs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle olive oil over them and sprinkle garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
Bake the bombs: Bake the mozzarella bacon bombs for 12-15 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and the cheese starts to melt.
Serve: Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce!
