Description
Bite-sized dough pockets stuffed with seasoned ground beef, melted cheese, garlic, and Parmesan—perfect for parties or a fun appetizer.
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder (or 2 cloves fresh garlic, minced)
- 1/4 tsp onion powder (optional)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 can (16 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough
- 2 tbsp butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C), or according to the biscuit dough package instructions.
- In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and optional onion powder. Drain excess grease.
- Remove from heat and stir in shredded cheese until creamy and well combined.
- Separate biscuit dough into individual pieces. Flatten each piece and place a spoonful of the beef-cheese mixture in the center.
- Pinch edges together to form a sealed ball.
- Place seam-side down on a baking sheet.
- In a small saucepan, melt butter and stir in minced garlic.
- Brush the tops of the dough balls with garlic butter.
- Sprinkle grated Parmesan over each dough ball.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes or until golden brown.
- Garnish with parsley if desired and serve warm with a dipping sauce of choice.
Notes
- Use crescent roll or pizza dough as alternatives to biscuit dough.
- Freeze assembled bombs for later baking—just add a few minutes to bake time.
- Add cooked bacon, jalapeños, or diced onions for extra flavor.
- Best served warm; reheat in oven to keep crispy texture.
