Ingredients
Scale
Meat:
- 1 pound ground beef
Cheese:
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Other Ingredients:
- 1 can (8 pieces) refrigerated biscuit dough
- 1/4 cup onion, finely diced
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Prepare the oven to 375°F and arrange parchment paper on a baking sheet.
- Sauté ground beef in a skillet over medium heat, incorporating salt, pepper, and onion until thoroughly browned.
- Combine the cooked beef with cheddar and mozzarella cheeses in a mixing bowl, creating a savory filling.
- Gently flatten each biscuit dough piece and center a portion of the beef-cheese mixture, carefully folding and sealing the edges to craft a compact spherical shape.
- Position the formed balls with their sealed side facing downward on the prepared baking sheet.
- Apply a generous brush of melted butter across each ball’s surface, then dust generously with garlic powder and freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
- Transfer to the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, monitoring until the exterior achieves a rich golden-brown coloration.
- Optional: Sprinkle fresh chopped parsley for added visual appeal and herbaceous notes, then serve immediately while warm and aromatic.
Notes
- Swap ground beef with ground turkey or plant-based meat for a lighter, healthier alternative that maintains the delicious flavor profile.
- Prep ingredients beforehand to streamline the assembly process and make cooking faster and more enjoyable.
- Add a dash of hot sauce or red pepper flakes inside the beef mixture for those craving an extra kick of spiciness.
- Store leftover bombs in an airtight container and reheat in the oven to maintain their crispy exterior and prevent sogginess.
