Ingredients

Scale

For the Cheeseburger Filling

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

For the Dough and Topping

  • 1 tube refrigerated biscuit dough (about 8 biscuits)
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons finely minced garlic
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cheeseburger Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix thoroughly to ensure even seasoning throughout the meat.
  2. Cook the Beef: Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the seasoned ground beef until browned and fully cooked, breaking it into crumbles as it cooks. Drain any excess fat and set aside to cool slightly.
  3. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat for easy cleanup.
  4. Prepare Biscuit Dough: Separate the biscuit dough into individual biscuits. Flatten each biscuit with your palm or a rolling pin into a roughly 4-inch circle to create a base for wrapping.
  5. Assemble the Bombs: Place about 2 tablespoons of cooked ground beef in the center of each flattened biscuit. Top with a generous amount of shredded cheddar cheese. Carefully fold and pinch the edges of the dough to seal the filling inside, shaping each into a ball.
  6. Prepare Garlic Parmesan Butter: In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with finely minced garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, and chopped fresh parsley until well combined.
  7. Coat the Bombs: Place the assembled bombs on the prepared baking sheet. Brush each bomb generously with the garlic Parmesan butter mixture, ensuring an even coating for maximum flavor.
  8. Bake: Bake the bombs in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until they turn golden brown and the dough is cooked through.
  9. Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Serve warm as a delicious appetizer or snack.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of smoked paprika or chili flakes to the ground beef mixture.
  • Use sharp cheddar for a more pronounced cheesy taste.
  • If preferred, substitute ground turkey or chicken for a lighter protein option.
  • The garlic Parmesan butter glaze can also be brushed midway through baking for a more intense garlic flavor.
  • Serve with a side of ranch dressing or ketchup for dipping.
