Preparation Time:
- Prep time: 20 minutes
- Cook time: 25 minutes
- Total time: 45 minutes
- Servings: 12 cheeseburger bombs
Ingredients:
- 500g ground beef
- 50g melted butter
- 100g grated cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 12 pieces of refrigerated biscuit dough (or homemade dough)
- 50g grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon water
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Filling
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula. Drain any excess grease. Add salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir well and cook for another 2 minutes to combine flavors. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
2. Assemble the Cheeseburger Bombs
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out each piece of biscuit dough until it is about 10cm in diameter. Place a spoonful of the cooked beef mixture in the center of each dough circle. Top with a generous sprinkle of grated cheddar cheese. Carefully fold the edges of the dough over the filling, pinching to seal the seams completely.
3. Prepare the Topping
In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, minced garlic, and chopped parsley. In a separate small bowl, whisk the egg with 1 tablespoon of water to create an egg wash.
4. Bake the Cheeseburger Bombs
Place the sealed cheeseburger bombs seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush the tops with the egg wash, then sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.
5. Final Touch
As soon as the cheeseburger bombs come out of the oven, brush them with the garlic butter mixture for an extra boost of flavor. Let them cool slightly before serving.
