Ingredients:

1 lb Ground Beef (80/20 fat content recommended for juiciness)
1 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
2 tsp Garlic Powder (for the meat mixture)
1 tsp Salt (for the meat mixture)
1 tsp Black Pepper (for the meat mixture)
2 cans Refrigerated Biscuit Dough (each can contains 8 biscuits, so you’ll have 16 bombs total)
2 tbsp Butter, melted
½ cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 tsp Garlic Powder (for the topping)

Preparing the Cheeseburger Filling

Mixing the Beef

In a medium bowl, combine the ground beef, 2 teaspoons of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of black pepper. Gently mix these ingredients together with your hands. It’s important not to overwork the meat, as this can lead to tough cheeseburger bombs. We want the spices to be evenly distributed throughout the beef.
Once the seasonings are incorporated, divide the beef mixture into 16 equal portions. This will ensure that each biscuit bomb has a consistent amount of delicious cheeseburger filling. Rolling each portion into a rough ball will make them easier to handle when assembling the bombs.

Assembling the Cheeseburger Bombs

Shaping the Bombs

Unroll one can of the refrigerated biscuit dough onto a clean, lightly floured surface. Separate the biscuits. For each biscuit, gently flatten it into a circle, about 4-5 inches in diameter. You can use your fingers or a rolling pin for this. The goal is to have a dough base that’s large enough to encase your beef and cheese.
Place one of the beef portions onto the center of a flattened biscuit circle. Then, top the beef with a tablespoon of the shredded cheddar cheese. Now, carefully bring the edges of the biscuit dough up and around the beef and cheese filling, pinching them together firmly to seal. You want to make sure there are no gaps or holes, otherwise, your cheesy filling might escape during baking. Gently roll the senon-alcoholic aled dough into a ball. Repeat this process for all 16 portions of beef and all 16 biscuits.

Baking the Cheeseburger Bombs

Creating the Garlic Parmesan Topping and Baking

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). While the oven is preheating, prepare your flavorful topping. In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, ½ cup of grated Parmesan cheese, and the remaining 1 teaspoon of garlic powder. This buttery, garlicky, cheesy mixture will give your cheeseburger bombs an irresistible golden crust and amazing flavor.
Arrange the assembled cheeseburger bombs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring they have a little space between them. This prevents them from sticking together and allows for even cooking. Once the oven is preheated, brush or spoon the prepared garlic Parmesan topping generously over the top of each cheeseburger bomb. Make sure to coat them well for maximum flavor.
Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the biscuit dough is golden brown and puffed up, and the cheese inside is melted and gooey. You might notice some of the cheese oozing out slightly, which is perfectly fine and indicates a delicious, melty center. Keep an eye on them during the last few minutes of baking to prevent burning. The exact baking time can vary depending on your oven.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Can I make the Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs Recipe ahead of time?

Yes, you absolutely can! You can prepare the cheeseburger bombs up to the point of baking and store them, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. When you’re ready to bake, simply add a few extra minutes to the cooking time.

What’s the best way to reheat leftover Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs?

For the best results, reheat your leftover cheeseburger bombs in a preheated oven at around 350°F (175°C) for 5-10 minutes, or until warmed through and the crust is crisp again. Microwaving is an option, but it can make the crust a bit soft.
