Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb (450 g) ground beef
- 12 small cubes cheddar cheese or mozzarella
- 1 small onion, finely diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp ketchup
- 1 tsp mustard
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 1 (16 oz / 450 g) can refrigerated biscuit dough
- ¼ cup (60 g) unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsps grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp dried parsley
Instructions
- Preparation: Heat oven to 375F (190C). Line baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease to prevent sticking.
- Meat Mixture: In skillet, brown ground beef over medium heat, crumbling with spatula. Drain excess fat. Season with Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat.
- Dough Transformation: Gently stretch refrigerated biscuit dough into wider, thinner circles using fingertips.
- Filling Assembly: Center a portion of seasoned meat on each dough circle. Top with cheddar cheese. Carefully fold and seal dough edges, ensuring complete closure without openings.
- Baking Process: Position sealed parcels on prepared baking sheet with adequate spacing. Roast for 12-15 minutes until surfaces turn golden brown and dough cooks thoroughly.
- Finishing Touch: Whisk melted butter with minced garlic and Parmesan cheese. Brush aromatic mixture over freshly baked bombs immediately after removing from oven.
- Serving: Plate cheeseburger bombs hot, optionally accompanied by dipping sauces for enhanced flavor experience.
Notes
- Seal Carefully: Ensure dough edges are completely sealed to prevent cheese leakage during baking, using pinching techniques to close any potential openings.
- Meat Moisture Control: Drain ground beef thoroughly to avoid soggy dough and prevent excess grease from making the bombs heavy or greasy.
- Dough Stretching Technique: Gently stretch biscuit dough with fingertips, creating a thin, even surface that allows easier wrapping and more uniform cooking.
- Brush Generously: Apply garlic Parmesan butter immediately after baking for maximum flavor absorption and a glossy, appetizing appearance.
