Let’s Make it Together
Preheat and Prepare Your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly spray it with cooking spray.
Mix the Filling Ingredients: In a bowl, combine ground beef, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined; avoid overmixing to keep it tender.
Shape Your Cheeseburgers: Take small portions of the beef mixture (about 1-2 tablespoons) and form them into small patties. Make sure they are not too thick; otherwise, they won’t cook evenly.
Add Cheese and Seal It Up!: Place shredded Parmesan cheese in the center of each patty. Carefully fold the edges around the cheese and roll them into balls. Ensure no cheese is peeking out!
Wrap It Up with Biscuit Dough: Open your refrigerated biscuit dough package. Cut each biscuit in half and flatten slightly before wrapping them around each cheeseburger bomb tightly.
Bake Until Golden Brown: Arrange the wrapped bombs on your prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until they are golden brown and puffed up joyfully.
Now you have perfectly baked Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs ready to devour! Enjoy them warm with your favorite dipping sauces!
