Ingredients
Scale
Meat & Cheese
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, diced
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, cubed
Dough & Toppings
- 1 can (16.3 oz) biscuit dough
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon parsley, chopped
Other
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the cheeseburger bombs.
- Cook Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until it is browned and no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat to avoid greasiness.
- Sauté Garlic: Add the minced garlic to the browned beef and sauté together for 1-2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant, then remove the skillet from heat.
- Prepare Dough: Slightly flatten each biscuit dough round with your hands or a rolling pin to make it easier to fill.
- Assemble Filling: Place a spoonful of the beef and garlic mixture onto the center of each flattened biscuit dough round. Add a cube of cheddar cheese and several pieces of diced Parmesan cheese on top of the beef for extra flavor.
- Seal Bombs: Fold the dough over the filling, carefully pinching the edges together to seal and form a ball, ensuring no filling escapes during baking.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place each sealed bomb seam-side down on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, spacing them evenly.
- Brush & Sprinkle: Brush the tops with melted butter for a golden finish and sprinkle with chopped parsley for a fresh, herbal touch.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15–18 minutes or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.
- Cool & Serve: Let the cheeseburger bombs cool slightly on a wire rack before serving to allow the filling to set slightly and prevent burns.
Notes
- You can substitute cheddar and Parmesan cheeses with your favorite melty cheeses like mozzarella or Monterey Jack.
- For a spicier version, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or diced jalapeño to the beef mixture.
- Make sure to seal the dough edges tightly to prevent cheese and beef from leaking out during baking.
- Leftovers can be reheated in the oven or air fryer to maintain crispness.
