Equipment
- large skillet
- baking sheet
- parchment paper
- small microwave-safe bowl
Ingredients
Filling
- 1 pound ground beef
- ½ cup finely chopped onion
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 can (16.3 oz) (8 count) refrigerated biscuit dough
- 4 ounces (cut into 8 small cubes) cheddar cheese
Garlic Parmesan Topping
- ¼ cup (melted) unsalted butter
- 2 cloves (minced) garlic
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions
Preparation
- In a large skillet, cook ground beef and chopped onion over medium heat until browned, then drain excess grease. Stir in salt and pepper and set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Separate the biscuit dough and flatten each into a 3-4 inch circle on a floured surface.
Assembly and Baking
- Place a spoonful of beef mixture and a cheddar cheese cube in the center of each biscuit. Bring the edges up and pinch tightly to form a sealed ball, placing them seam-down on the baking sheet.
- Melt butter in a small bowl, then stir in minced garlic and grated Parmesan cheese.
- Brush each cheeseburger bomb generously with the garlic Parmesan butter, sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired, and bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown. Serve warm.
Notes
For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of garlic powder or onion powder to the beef mixture. These cheeseburger bombs are perfect for parties or a fun family meal, and can be easily customized with different cheeses or seasonings.
