How to Make Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs
Ingredients
- Ground Beef: 1 lb (80/20 fat content recommended)
- Cheddar Cheese: 1 cup, shredded
- Garlic Powder: 2 tsp
- Salt: 1 tsp
- Black Pepper: 1 tsp
- Refrigerated Biscuit Dough: 2 cans (8 biscuits each)
- Butter: 2 tbsp, melted
- Parmesan Cheese: ½ cup, grated
- Garlic Powder: 1 tsp
Directions
Step 1: Prepare Your Ingredients
Start by gathering all your ingredients. Make sure your ground beef is thawed if it was frozen. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2: Cook the Ground Beef
In a skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef. Sprinkle in 2 teaspoons of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of black pepper. Cook until the beef is browned and fully cooked. Drain any excess grease and let it cool for a few minutes.
Step 3: Assemble Your Cheeseburger Bombs
Open the cans of refrigerated biscuit dough. Take each biscuit and flatten it out in your palm. Place about a tablespoon of the cooked beef mixture and a little shredded cheddar cheese in the center. Fold the biscuit dough over the filling and pinch the edges to seal it completely.
Step 4: Bake the Cheeseburger Bombs
Arrange the sealed bombs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until they are golden brown.
Step 5: Add the Parmesan Garlic Topping
While the bombs are baking, mix the melted butter, ½ cup parmesan cheese, and 1 teaspoon of garlic powder in a small bowl. Once the bombs are out of the oven, brush this mixture all over the tops.
How to Serve Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs
Serve the Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs hot, straight from the oven. They make a great appetizer or side dish. Pair them with your favorite dipping sauces, such as ketchup or ranch dressing for extra flavor.
How to Store Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs
If you have leftovers, let the bombs cool completely, then store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They can stay fresh for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply pop them in the oven or microwave until warmed through.
Tips to Make Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs
- Make sure to not overfill the biscuits; otherwise they may burst while baking.
