Ingredients
-
450 g (1 lb) ground beef
-
1 teaspoon garlic powder
-
1 teaspoon onion powder
-
Salt and pepper, to taste
-
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (optional)
-
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
-
½ cup cream cheese, softened
-
1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (8-count)
-
60 g (¼ cup) unsalted butter, melted
-
½ teaspoon minced garlic or garlic powder
-
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
-
Chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
-
Brown the Beef
-
In a skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until fully browned.
-
Drain any excess fat, then season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce if using.
-
Remove from heat and stir in cheddar and cream cheese until well combined.
-
-
Shape the Bombs
-
Preheat your oven to 190 °C (375 °F).
-
Flatten each piece of biscuit dough into circles (~4 inches wide).
-
Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the beef-cheese mixture into the center of each circle.
-
Bring the edges together and pinch tightly to seal the filling inside, forming a ball.
-
-
Prepare the Topping
-
In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with minced garlic (or garlic powder) and Parmesan cheese.
-
Brush this garlic-Parmesan butter generously over the tops of each sealed dough ball.
-
-
Bake
-
Place the bombs seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
-
Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
-
-
Serve
-
Let them cool for a couple of minutes.
-
If desired, sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
-
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces (like ketchup, ranch, or spicy mayo).
-
Notes
-
Make sure to seal the dough well—tight seams help prevent leaks while baking.
-
Let the cooked filling cool slightly before stuffing to avoid soggy dough.
-
Brush the tops generously with butter mixture to get a flavorful crust.
