Ingredients You’ll Need

Now, let’s get to the good stuff—ingredients! You probably already have most of these items hanging around your kitchen, which makes this recipe even better. Here’s what you’ll need to get started:

• 1 lb ground beef – You can use lean beef or whatever you have on hand. I tend to go for a mix with a little bit of fat for flavor. The fat helps keep the beef moist, so don’t skimp on this.
• 1 packet of garlic butter biscuit dough – This is the shortcut to making these cheeseburger bombs extra easy and super delicious. If you can find it, grab the one with a bit of seasoning for an extra boost. The garlic butter biscuit dough makes the recipe come together in no time and adds flavor that complements the cheeseburger filling.
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese – The gooey cheese is a must for these bombs. You want it to melt perfectly inside. Mozzarella gives it that stretchy, cheesy texture that makes every bite so satisfying.
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese – This adds a salty, savory kick that really makes these bombs stand out. Parmesan isn’t just for sprinkling on pasta; it adds a great umami flavor to these cheeseburger bombs.
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder – For that rich, garlicky flavor that takes these from good to amazing. If you’re a garlic lover like me, you can even add a little extra!
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce – This adds that deep, savory flavor to the beef. It’s optional, but trust me, it makes a difference. It adds an extra layer of flavor that makes the beef taste like a gourmet burger.
• Salt and pepper – Just to taste. These are the basics that bring everything together. Don’t be shy with the seasoning—it really makes a difference!

How to Make Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs

Alright, enough talking—let’s get to the fun part. I’m sure you’re ready to start cooking, and I promise, these little bombs come together so quickly.

Step 1: Cook the Ground Beef

Start by heating a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until it’s browned all the way through. Break it up into small crumbles as it cooks so you get nice, even pieces. If you’ve ever made regular burgers, you know the drill. Once it’s cooked, drain any excess grease (unless you want to keep it for flavor, which is totally up to you).

I like to use a spoon to press down on the beef to help it brown more evenly, and that’s when the best flavors come out. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Give it a good mix and let it cook for another 2-3 minutes so the flavors can meld together. Once it’s done, set it aside to cool slightly.

Step 2: Prepare the Biscuit Dough

Next, open up that can of biscuit dough. I know, the sound of popping the can is always a little bit satisfying, isn’t it? Gently roll each biscuit into a flat circle using your hands or a rolling pin. You don’t need them to be perfect; just make sure they’re large enough to hold all that yummy beef and cheese.

Here’s a fun tip: if you’re in a rush, you can skip the rolling pin and just use your hands to flatten the dough. The biscuit dough is pretty forgiving, so you don’t have to worry too much about making each one the same size.

Step 3: Assemble the Cheeseburger Bombs

Now comes the fun part—assembling your cheeseburger bombs! Take each flattened biscuit and spoon a small amount of cooked beef into the center. Top it with some shredded mozzarella and a sprinkle of parmesan. You can even add a few little extras like pickles, onions, or bacon to make them even more exciting—this is your recipe, so feel free to get creative!

Then, carefully fold the edges of the biscuit dough over the filling, pinching the seams to seal them. You want to make sure the filling is completely wrapped up so nothing spills out while baking. It’s like making a little doughy pocket of cheeseburger goodness!

Step 4: Bake to Perfection

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the filled dough balls onto a greased baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one. If you like, you can brush the tops with a little melted butter and sprinkle some extra parmesan over them for that golden, crispy finish. You can even add a pinch of garlic powder to make the tops extra savory.

Pop them in the oven and bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly. You’ll know they’re done when they smell amazing (trust me, you won’t be able to resist!).

Step 5: Enjoy!

Once they’re out of the oven, let them cool for a few minutes before diving in. These little cheeseburger bombs are best served warm, straight from the oven. You can dip them in ketchup, mustard, or your favorite burger sauce for even more flavor. Enjoy!

Tips for the Best Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs

Here are a few tips that will help you make these bombs even better:

• Make it your own: Feel free to get creative with the filling! Add in some chopped onions, pickles, or even a little bit of cooked bacon to make these bombs even more flavorful. If you’re a fan of spicy food, a little jalapeño goes a long way in adding a nice kick.
• Use a meat thermometer: If you’re not sure if the beef is fully cooked, using a meat thermometer is a great way to make sure it’s safe to eat. It should reach 160°F (71°C).
• Freezer-friendly: If you want to make these ahead of time, you can freeze the uncooked cheeseburger bombs. Just pop them in the freezer on a baking sheet, and once they’re frozen solid, transfer them to a freezer bag. When you’re ready to bake them, just pop them straight into the oven from frozen (you might need to add an extra minute or two to the baking time). This makes them great for meal prepping!
• For extra crispy bombs: If you like your biscuit dough to be extra crispy, try baking them on a wire rack rather than a baking sheet. This will allow air to circulate underneath and give the bottoms an even crispier texture.

Why This Recipe is Perfect for Busy Nights

Let’s be honest—life gets busy, and sometimes you need a meal that doesn’t require a lot of time or effort. These Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs are exactly that. They’re quick to assemble, they don’t take long to cook, and you can easily make them with ingredients you likely already have on hand. Plus, they’re customizable to your taste, which is a bonus when you have picky eaters in the house.

I also love that these bombs can be made in bulk. Whether you’re feeding a family or preparing for a party, you can easily double the recipe and still have enough for everyone. And if there are any leftovers (which I highly doubt), they reheat really well.
