# What You'll Need:
→ Meats
01 - 1 pound ground beef
→ Cheese
02 - 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
03 - 8 small cubes mozzarella cheese, approximately 3/4 inch each
→ Vegetables
04 - 1 small onion, finely diced
05 - 1 small pickle, finely chopped (optional)
→ Dough
06 - 1 tube refrigerated biscuit dough, 8 biscuits
→ Spices & Seasonings
07 - 1 tablespoon ketchup
08 - 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
09 - 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
10 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
11 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
12 - 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
→ For Topping
13 - 1 egg, beaten
14 - 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
# How To Make:
01 - Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a skillet over medium heat, sauté onion until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add ground beef, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook until beef is browned, then drain any excess fat.
03 - Stir in ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and chopped pickles. Remove skillet from heat and let mixture cool slightly.
04 - Flatten each biscuit round. Place 1 tablespoon of the cooled beef mixture and 1/2 tablespoon shredded cheddar in the center. Top with a mozzarella cube.
05 - Wrap dough around the filling, pinching edges to seal completely and shape into a ball. Position each seam side down on the prepared baking sheet.
06 - Brush each dough ball with beaten egg and sprinkle evenly with sesame seeds.
07 - Bake for 15 to 18 minutes or until the biscuit exterior is deep golden brown.
08 - Allow bombs to cool for several minutes before serving. Pair with extra burger sauces or condiments for dipping.
# Expert Tips:
01 -
- Every bite hides a gooey cheese center, making dinner a delightfully messy affair.
- They’re fast to make and guaranteed to get everyone grinning around the table.
02 -
- Filling them too full means cheese escapes and creates little puddles—delicious, but they look wild.
- Letting the beef cool before assembling keeps the dough from getting sticky and tearing.
03 -
- Freeze a couple unbaked bombs for emergency snack attacks; they bake up perfectly from frozen with just a few extra minutes.
- Lightly wet your fingers to keep the biscuit dough from sticking as you pinch it closed.
