Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon black pepper
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• ½ teaspoon onion powder
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 8 small cheddar cheese cubes (or shredded cheese)
• 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (8-count)
• 2 tablespoons butter, melted
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 tablespoon chopped parsley (optional)

Directions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

Step 2: Cook the Beef

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula. Drain excess fat. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 3: Prepare the Dough

Flatten each biscuit slightly with your hands or a rolling pin. Place a small spoonful of cooked beef in the center of each biscuit round. Top with a cube of cheddar cheese.

Step 4: Seal the Bombs

Carefully bring the edges of the dough up and around the filling, pinching to seal. Place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 5: Add Garlic Parmesan Coating

Mix the melted butter with minced garlic. Brush the tops of the bombs with the mixture, then sprinkle Parmesan cheese over each.

Step 6: Bake

Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and puffed up.

Step 7: Garnish and Serve

Sprinkle with chopped parsley for an extra pop of flavor. Serve warm and enjoy!

FAQs

How do I prevent the bombs from opening while baking?

Make sure the edges of the biscuit dough are well-sealed by pinching them tightly. Placing them seam-side down also helps.

Can I make these ahead of time?

Yes! Assemble the bombs and refrigerate them for up to 24 hours before baking.

What’s the best dipping sauce?

Ranch, ketchup, BBQ sauce, or garlic aioli complement these well.

Can I use crescent roll dough instead of biscuits?

Yes, but be sure to seal the edges well, as crescent dough is thinner.

What’s the best cheese to use?

Cheddar is classic, but try provolone, pepper jack, or Colby Jack for variation.

Can I air fry these instead of baking?

Yes! Air fry at 350°F for 8-10 minutes until golden brown.

Can I add vegetables?

Absolutely! Try sautéed mushrooms, onions, or bell peppers for extra flavor.

How do I make them extra crispy?

Brushing the tops with egg wash before baking helps achieve a crispier texture.

Can I use homemade biscuit dough?

Yes! Homemade biscuit dough works great—just ensure it’s rolled thin enough to wrap the filling.

Can I make them without cheese?

Yes, but they may be less gooey. Consider adding a sauce inside for moisture.
