Ingredients
Ground Beef Filling:
- 1 pound ground beef
- Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to taste
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 cup shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese
- Optional: crispy bacon, pickles, or caramelized onions
Dough:
- 1 tube refrigerated biscuit or pizza dough, cut into 8–12 pieces and flattened
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic or garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Cook ground beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef with seasonings and Worcestershire sauce until browned. Drain fat.
- Prepare filling: Remove from heat and stir in cheese and optional fillings.
- Prepare dough: Flatten dough pieces into discs.
- Assemble: Spoon filling into the center of each disc. Fold and pinch edges to seal.
- Bake: Place seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Mix melted butter with garlic and brush over each dough ball. Sprinkle tops with grated Parmesan. Bake for 15–20 minutes until golden brown.
- Serve: Cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Pizza dough yields a chewier texture, while biscuit dough offers a flakier crust.
- Experiment with add-ins like jalapeños, mushrooms, or different cheeses for variety.
- These Cheeseburger Bombs are freezer-friendly: bake first, cool, then freeze and reheat as needed.
- For allergy-friendly options, consider using gluten-free dough or dairy-free cheese.
