Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Dough and Topping
- 1 can (16 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Cook the beef: Place a skillet over medium heat and brown the ground beef until fully cooked, breaking it up as it cooks. Drain any excess grease to avoid sogginess.
- Season and combine cheeses: Sprinkle garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper over the cooked beef, stirring to evenly distribute the flavors. Add the cream cheese and shredded cheddar, stirring until the mixture is smooth and fully combined. Remove the skillet from heat.
- Prepare the biscuit dough: Open the can of refrigerated biscuit dough and separate the individual biscuits. Flatten each biscuit into a thin circle large enough to hold the filling.
- Stuff the bombs: Spoon a generous amount of the beef and cheese mixture into the center of each flattened biscuit. Fold the dough over the filling, carefully pinching the edges to seal the bombs completely to avoid leaks during baking.
- Brush with butter and Parmesan: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter and grated Parmesan cheese. Use a pastry brush to coat the tops of each bomb with this mixture, which will help create a flavorful, golden crust.
- Bake the bombs: Arrange the stuffed bombs on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they have space to expand. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops turn a beautiful golden brown.
- Cool and garnish: Allow the bombs to cool slightly on the baking sheet. Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the top for a fresh, colorful garnish before serving.
Notes
- You can substitute shredded cheddar with another cheese like mozzarella or pepper jack for a different flavor profile.
- Make sure to seal the biscuit edges tightly to prevent the filling from leaking out during baking.
- For an extra kick, sprinkle some red pepper flakes into the filling mixture.
- Serve with ketchup, ranch, or your favorite dipping sauce for added flavor.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated in the oven to maintain crispiness.
