How to Make Cheeseburger Bombs
Cooking these bombs is pure fun. Start with seasoned ground beef and onion. Mix in cheese for a rich flavor. Wrap with biscuit dough, easy and quick. Bake until golden in your oven. Your kitchen will smell like burger heaven.
1. Cook the Beef

In a skillet, cook ground beef over medium heat. Add salt, pepper, and 1 tsp garlic powder.
Once browned, drain any fat. Let cool slightly, then mix in ½ cup cheddar cheese.
2. Flatten the Dough

Separate biscuits and flatten each into a 4-inch circle. Use flour if dough gets sticky. Work quickly, cold dough is easier to seal.
3. Fill & Seal

Place a spoonful of beef mix in the center of each dough circle. Add a pinch of extra cheddar. Fold edges up and pinch to seal. Roll gently into a ball.
4. Butter & Bake

Mix melted butter with 1 tsp garlic powder. Brush each bomb with garlic butter. Sprinkle with Parmesan and parsley. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15–18 minutes or until golden.
Tips for Success

Flavor matters, so season your beef well. Use biscuit dough for quick cooking. Don’t overstuff the cheeseburger bomb center. Seal edges tightly to avoid a mess. Bake on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Serve warm for the best taste.
- Keep the biscuit dough cold so it’s easier to work with.
- Don’t overfill or it’ll leak!
- Seal really well, pinch tightly!
- Space them apart on the tray so they cook evenly.
- Rotate your pan halfway through for even browning.
Fun Variations
Try bacon bits for smoky flavor. Add chipotle sauce for spicy kick. Swap cheddar cheese with a parmesan cheese topping. Use coleslaw for a crunchy twist. Stuff with pickles for burger-style bombs. Turn leftovers into a snack salad.
