Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ For the burger filling

01 - 1 pound ground beef
02 - Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to taste
03 - 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
04 - 1 cup shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese
05 - Optional: crispy bacon, pickles, or caramelized onions

→ For the dough wrapping

06 - 1 tube refrigerated biscuit or pizza dough, cut into 8-12 circles and flattened

→ For the garlic Parmesan topping

07 - 2 tablespoons butter, melted
08 - 1 teaspoon minced garlic or garlic powder
09 - 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
10 - Optional: chopped fresh parsley for garnish

# Instructions:

01 - In a large skillet, cook ground beef over medium heat until browned and no longer pink. Drain excess fat, then season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Let it cool completely, then mix in shredded cheese until combined.
02 - Flatten each piece of dough into a 4-inch circle. Place 1-2 tablespoons of cooled burger filling in the center. Pinch the dough edges to seal, then roll each into a smooth ball.
03 - Place dough balls seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet with space between them. Mix melted butter with minced garlic and brush generously onto each ball. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
04 - Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake for 15-18 minutes until golden brown and dough is fully cooked.
05 - Brush with remaining garlic butter as they come out of the oven. Sprinkle with parsley if desired and serve warm with dipping sauces like ranch, garlic aioli, or spicy mayo.

05 - Ensure the filling is completely cooled before assembling to prevent dough issues.
