Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs are irresistible bite-sized baked treats featuring savory ground beef seasoned with garlic and Worcestershire sauce, mixed with melted mozzarella and parmesan cheese, all wrapped in fluffy biscuit dough. Brushed with garlic-infused butter and sprinkled with fresh parsley, these cheesy, flavorful bombs make perfect appetizers or snacks for parties and gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Beef Filling

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup shredded parmesan cheese

For the Dough & Topping

  • 1 can (8 pieces) refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleaning easier.
  2. Cook Ground Beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until thoroughly browned, about 7-8 minutes, breaking it up as it cooks. Drain any excess fat from the skillet.
  3. Season Beef: Add salt, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder to the cooked beef. Stir well to combine the flavors, then remove from heat and allow it to cool slightly.
  4. Combine with Cheese: Transfer the beef mixture to a large bowl and mix in shredded mozzarella and parmesan cheese until evenly incorporated.
  5. Prepare Dough: Separate the biscuit dough into eight individual pieces. Flatten each piece gently with your hands to create a small disk ready for filling.
  6. Fill Dough: Spoon a generous amount of the cheesy beef mixture into the center of each flattened dough piece.
  7. Form Bombs: Carefully fold the dough around the filling, pinching the edges tightly to seal and form a smooth ball, ensuring no filling escapes during baking.
  8. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the sealed dough balls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, spaced slightly apart.
  9. Make Garlic Butter: Melt unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
  10. Brush Garlic Butter: Using a brush, evenly coat each dough ball with the warm garlic butter. Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the tops for added flavor and color.
  11. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the biscuit dough is golden brown and cooked through.
  12. Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let the biscuits cool slightly before serving warm to enjoy the melty cheesy center.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add some finely diced onions or green chilies to the beef mixture.
  • Ensure the edges of the biscuit dough are sealed tightly to prevent leakage during baking.
  • Use refrigerated biscuit dough for convenience, or substitute with homemade biscuit dough if preferred.
  • Serve warm with ketchup, mustard, or your favorite dipping sauce.
  • These bombs can be refrigerated before baking for up to 24 hours, just increase baking time slightly if baking cold.
