Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs (Print-Friendly Version)

Bite-sized dough pockets filled with seasoned beef, cheddar, garlic butter, and Parmesan.

# Ingredients List:

→ Filling

01 - 450 g ground beef
02 - 1/2 medium onion, finely chopped
03 - 2 cloves garlic, minced
04 - 1/2 teaspoon fine salt
05 - 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
06 - 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
07 - 110 g cheddar cheese, cubed or shredded

→ Dough and Topping

08 - 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough or pizza dough
09 - 45 g unsalted butter, melted
10 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
11 - 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
12 - Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat oven to 190°C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a skillet over medium heat, brown ground beef with onion and garlic. Season with salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook until beef is fully cooked and mixture is fragrant. Allow to cool slightly.
03 - Flatten each piece of dough into a 7–10 cm round. Place a small portion of beef mixture in the centre and top with cheddar cheese.
04 - Fold dough over the filling and pinch edges to seal completely. Position seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
05 - Bake in the preheated oven for 15–18 minutes, or until dough is golden brown and cooked through.
06 - While baking, stir melted butter with garlic powder and grated Parmesan cheese until well combined.
07 - Immediately after baking, brush each bomb with the garlic Parmesan butter. Sprinkle with fresh parsley if desired.
08 - Serve warm, accompanied by dipping sauces such as ketchup, mustard, or burger sauce.

# Extra Tips:

01 - Incorporate pickles or sliced jalapeños for extra flavour or spice.
02 - Substitute cheddar with mozzarella or pepper jack for variation.
03 - Everything bagel seasoning can be used in place of Parmesan for a different topping.
04 - Fully baked bombs freeze well and can be reheated directly from frozen in the oven.
05 - Homemade dough may be used in place of store-bought for a scratch-made result.
