Ingredients

Scale

Beef Mixture

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 1 tbsp mustard
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese or mozzarella

Dough & Topping

  • 1 can (16 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits)
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • Sesame seeds or additional Parmesan cheese, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Cook the ground beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned and fully cooked, breaking it apart as it cooks for even browning.
  2. Season the beef: Stir in garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, ketchup, and mustard. Continue cooking for 2-3 minutes until everything is well combined. Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly.
  3. Add cheese: Mix the shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese into the beef mixture and set aside.
  4. Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  5. Prepare biscuit dough: Separate the biscuit dough into individual biscuits and flatten each piece into a circle large enough to hold the beef filling.
  6. Assemble bombs: Place a spoonful of the beef and cheese mixture in the center of each dough circle. Gather the edges up and pinch them firmly to seal the filling inside, forming a ball shape.
  7. Arrange on baking sheet: Place each sealed dough ball on the prepared baking sheet with the sealed side down to prevent opening during baking.
  8. Bake: Bake the cheeseburger bombs for 10-12 minutes or until the biscuit dough is golden brown and cooked through.
  9. Prepare garlic parmesan butter: While the bombs bake, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, and dried parsley in a small bowl.
  10. Brush bombs with butter: Remove the baked bombs from the oven and immediately brush them generously with the garlic parmesan butter mixture.
  11. Serve: Serve the Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs warm, optionally garnished with sesame seeds or extra Parmesan cheese, alongside dipping sauces such as ketchup, mustard, or ranch dressing.

Notes

  • You can substitute shredded mozzarella cheese with cheddar for a different flavor profile.
  • Make sure to seal the biscuit dough edges very well to prevent filling from leaking during baking.
  • These bombs can be prepared ahead of time and baked just before serving for convenience.
  • Optional garnishes like sesame seeds add texture and visual appeal.
  • Serve with your favorite dipping sauces to enhance flavor.
