Ingredients
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
Dough & 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
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and for easy cleanup.
- Cook Ground Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked, breaking it apart with a spatula. Drain any excess fat to keep the filling moist but not greasy.
- Season and Mix: Season the beef with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until it melts and combines thoroughly with the beef, creating a cheesy, flavorful filling.
- Prepare Biscuit Dough: Roll out each biscuit dough piece on a flat surface until it’s approximately 1/4 inch thick. This creates enough surface area for wrapping the filling securely.
- Fill and Seal: Place about 2 tablespoons of the cheesy beef mixture in the center of each rolled biscuit. Carefully fold the edges of the dough around the filling and pinch to seal tightly, shaping each into a ball. Place each sealed ball seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Add Garlic Butter Topping: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter with the minced garlic. Brush this flavorful garlic butter generously over the tops of each cheeseburger bomb.
- Add Parmesan Cheese: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the buttered tops of the bombs to add a savory, cheesy crust after baking.
- Bake: Bake the bombs in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes or until they are golden brown and cooked through. The biscuit dough will puff up and the cheese inside will be melted.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh chopped parsley for color and a hint of freshness. Serve warm and enjoy your Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs!
Notes
- Use refrigerated biscuit dough for convenience and flaky texture; you can substitute with homemade biscuit dough if preferred.
- Make sure to pinch the dough seams tightly to prevent filling leaks during baking.
- For extra flavor, add a little diced onion or pickles inside the filling if desired.
- These bombs are best served fresh and warm but can be reheated in the oven for crispness.
- You can swap cheddar cheese with mozzarella or a cheese blend to change the flavor profile.
- Adjust seasoning to your taste, especially the salt and garlic powder.
