Ingredients

Scale

Main Protein:

  • 1 pound (454 grams) ground beef

Spices and Seasonings:

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste

Cheese and Dairy:

  • 8 slices cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Dough and Herbs:

  • 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Warm the oven to 375F, creating an ideal environment for golden, crispy bites.
  2. In a skillet, transform ground beef into a flavorful base with aromatic seasonings, cooking until perfectly browned and then allowing it to cool slightly.
  3. Create delectable parcels by gently pressing each biscuit dough flat, strategically positioning a cheese slice in its center.
  4. Carefully cradle the cheese and beef within the dough, meticulously folding and pinching edges to create secure, enclosed pockets.
  5. Arrange the sealed dough bundles seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet, ensuring even spacing.
  6. Craft a luxurious topping by whisking melted butter with fragrant minced garlic and nutty Parmesan cheese.
  7. Lavishly brush the herb-infused butter mixture across the surface of each dough ball, promising a rich, golden exterior.
  8. Slide the baking sheet into the preheated oven, allowing 12-15 minutes for transformation into crisp, bronzed parcels.
  9. Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the hot cheeseburger bombs, adding a final touch of vibrant color and fresh flavor.

Notes

  • Customize meat options by swapping ground beef with ground turkey, chicken, or plant-based alternatives for dietary preferences.
  • Ensure meat is fully cooled before stuffing to prevent dough from becoming soggy and maintain structural integrity.
  • Create uniform sizes by using a cookie scoop or measuring spoon when portioning beef and sealing dough for consistent cooking.
  • Prevent burning by monitoring biscuits closely during final minutes of baking, as oven temperatures can vary slightly.
