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

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C), or according to the biscuit dough package instructions.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and optional onion powder. Drain excess grease.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in shredded cheese until creamy and well combined.
  4. Separate biscuit dough into individual pieces. Flatten each piece and place a spoonful of the beef-cheese mixture in the center.
  5. Pinch edges together to form a sealed ball.
  6. Place seam-side down on a baking sheet.
  7. In a small saucepan, melt butter and stir in minced garlic.
  8. Brush the tops of the dough balls with garlic butter.
  9. Sprinkle grated Parmesan over each dough ball.
  10. Bake for 12–15 minutes or until golden brown.
  11. 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.
