Ingredients
Scale
Filling:
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20 fat content recommended)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
Dough:
- 2 cans refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits each)
Topping:
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp garlic powder
Instructions
- Prepare Your Ingredients: Gather all ingredients. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Let the ground beef sit at room temperature for 15 minutes to ensure even cooking. Separate and set aside the refrigerated biscuit dough.
- Cook the Ground Beef: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef along with salt and pepper. Break the meat into small crumbles and cook for 5-7 minutes until browned and no pink remains, reaching an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C). Drain excess grease if necessary. Stir in garlic powder and half of the shredded cheddar cheese until melted and mixed well. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
- Assemble Your Cheeseburger Bombs: Flatten each biscuit dough round on a lightly floured surface to about 4 inches wide using hands or rolling pin. Place 1 tablespoon of the beef mixture in the center, top with 1 tablespoon shredded cheddar cheese, then cover with another flattened biscuit. Press edges firmly to seal completely. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
- Bake the Cheeseburger Bombs: Place bombs seam-side down on an ungreased baking sheet approximately 2 inches apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the tops turn a golden brown and delicious aroma fills the kitchen.
- Add the Parmesan Garlic Topping: While bombs bake, melt butter and combine with grated Parmesan and garlic powder. As soon as the bombs come out of the oven, brush this mixture generously over each bomb to add flavor and a golden finish.
Notes
- Substitutions: Use mozzarella or pepper jack cheese in place of cheddar for a different flavor.
- Pro Tip: Brush dough with an egg wash before baking for extra crispiness and a shiny crust.
- Serving Suggestion: Serve warm with dipping sauces like ranch dressing or spicy ketchup for enhanced flavor.
