Cheeseburger Biscuit Bombs Delight

Cheeseburger Biscuit Bombs bring together all the crave-worthy flavors of your favorite burger in one fun hand-held bite. Perfect as a crowd-pleaser for parties or as a playful twist on family dinner these little bombs keep everyone reaching for just one more

The first time I tried these my kids were so excited to have cheeseburgers in a new form—now biscuit bombs are a frequent request in my house and disappear even faster than classic burgers

Ingredients

• Ground beef: gives that juicy burger flavor and hearty texture For best taste pick freshly ground beef with a good fat ratio
• Ketchup: subtle sweetness and tangy base Look for all natural ketchup to avoid too much added sugar
• Yellow mustard: classic burger zing and bright color Always give mustard a shake before spooning it in for even consistency
• Salt and pepper: simple seasoning that lets the beef shine Use fresh cracked pepper for more depth
• Shredded cheddar cheese or cheese cubes: melt into gooey pockets of flavor Try sharp cheddar or swap in American for a classic touch
• Refrigerated biscuit dough: produces a tender flaky wrap around the filling Check expiry dates for the fluffiest results
• Sesame seeds: optional but mimic that classic burger bun vibe Buy from the bulk section and store in the freezer so they stay fresh
• Melted butter: creates a glossy golden brown top Unsalted is my go to for more control over flavor

Step-by-Step Instructions

Cook the Beef:

Brown the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat breaking it up as it cooks for even browning about seven to eight minutes Once the pink is gone drain extra fat Stir in ketchup mustard salt and pepper then let cool for five minutes so the cheese will not melt too soon in the next steps

Prepare the Biscuits:

Open the biscuit dough and gently separate the rounds working with one at a time Use your hands or a lightly floured rolling pin to flatten each biscuit into a three to four inch wide disc This helps wrap the filling snugly

Assemble the Biscuit Bombs:

Spoon about two tablespoons of cooked beef mixture into the center of each disc Top the beef with a generous pinch of cheddar or a cube of cheese Gather up the edges of the biscuit and pinch them tightly together so the filling is sealed inside then gently roll into a neat round ball

Prepare for Baking:

Place the biscuits seam side down on a parchment lined baking sheet Make sure there is space between each one so they brown evenly Brush the tops with melted butter for shine and sprinkle over sesame seeds for texture

Bake to Perfection:

Slide the tray into a preheated oven at three hundred seventy five degrees Fahrenheit Bake for twelve to fifteen minutes watching for a deep golden color on the tops The cheese should be melted and biscuits puffed and flaky

Serve Warm with Sauces:

Cool just long enough so you will not burn your mouth Serve fresh and warm alongside extra ketchup mustard or your favorite burger sauce for dipping

Pin it

Cheddar is my family’s favorite part I love how the cheese turns extra melty inside the hot biscuit It reminds me of after school snacks with my siblings where anything cheesy was always a win

Storage Tips

Let any leftovers cool to room temperature before storing Place in a container in the fridge for up to three days To reheat bake in a hot oven or toaster oven until warmed through This brings back the biscuit’s crispy exterior better than microwaving

Ingredient Substitutions

Feel free to get creative with cheese Any melting cheese works well from mozzarella to Monterey Jack For a more adventurous twist fill with chopped pickles bits of cooked bacon or minced onion For vegetarians swap the beef for seasoned plant based crumbles

Make Ahead and Freezing

Biscuit bombs can be assembled ahead and stored covered on a baking sheet in the fridge for up to one day before baking To freeze wrap each unbaked bomb in plastic then freeze When ready to bake add a few extra minutes to oven time straight from the freezer for easy last minute snacks
