These Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs are a savory, cheesy delight featuring seasoned ground beef and melting cheddar cheese encased in flaky biscuit dough, topped with garlic butter and parmesan for an irresistible appetizer or snack.

Ingredients

Scale

Ground Beef Mixture

  • 1 pound ground beef (Ground turkey or chicken can be used for a lighter option)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Biscuit Dough and Filling

  • 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (8-count) (Homemade dough or pizza dough can be used for a fresher touch)
  • 8 cubes cheddar cheese (Any melty cheese like Monterey Jack or pepper jack can be used)

Garlic Butter Topping

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (Olive oil can work as a dairy-free alternative)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese (Use Pecorino Romano for a sharper taste)
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (Can be omitted if not available)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare for baking.
  2. Cook Beef: In a skillet, add 1 pound of ground beef and cook over medium heat until browned, about 6-8 minutes. Drain excess fat, then stir in garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Allow the mixture to cool slightly before assembling.
  3. Prepare Dough: Flatten each of the 8 rounds of biscuit dough into circles about 3 inches wide to form the base for the filling.
  4. Fill Dough: Spoon a generous amount of the cooled beef mixture into the center of each flattened biscuit, then top with a cube of cheddar cheese.
  5. Seal Bombs: Fold the edges of the biscuit dough over the filling, pinching them together tightly to create a seal. Roll each sealed dough into a smooth ball to encase the filling completely.
  6. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the sealed dough balls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly to allow for expansion during baking.
  7. Make Garlic Butter: Melt the unsalted butter over low heat in a small saucepan or skillet and stir in the minced garlic until fragrant.
  8. Brush and Top: Brush the garlic butter generously over each dough ball. Then sprinkle grated parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley evenly on top of each bomb.
  9. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15–18 minutes or until the dough balls are golden brown and cooked through. Monitor closely to avoid over-baking.
  10. Serve: Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving warm. These cheeseburger bombs are delicious on their own or with your favorite dipping sauces.

Notes

  • For a lighter option, substitute ground beef with ground turkey or chicken.
  • Fresh garlic can replace garlic powder; 1 clove of fresh garlic is approximately 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder.
  • If using fresh onion instead of onion powder, reduce moisture content to prevent dough sogginess.
  • Homemade biscuit or pizza dough can be used for a fresher taste and texture.
  • To make dairy-free, substitute unsalted butter with olive oil and omit parmesan cheese or use a vegan alternative.
  • Keep an eye during baking as oven temperatures may vary, preventing over-baking or burning.
  • Serve warm for best melty cheese experience.
