# What You'll Need:

→ Meats

01 - 1 pound ground beef

→ Cheese

02 - 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
03 - 8 small cubes mozzarella cheese, about 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 Prepare:

01 - Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a skillet over medium heat, cook the onion until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add ground beef, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook until beef is browned, then drain excess fat.
03 - Stir in ketchup, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and chopped pickles. Remove skillet from heat and allow mixture to cool slightly.
04 - Flatten each biscuit round. Place 1 tablespoon of beef mixture and 1/2 tablespoon shredded cheddar in the center. Top with a mozzarella cheese cube.
05 - Fold dough around the filling, pinching edges to seal completely into a ball. Place each ball seam side down on the prepared baking sheet.
06 - Brush each dough ball with beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds for a classic burger finish.
07 - Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 18 minutes, or until golden brown.
08 - Allow bombs to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with your choice of dipping sauces.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • This is the kind of snack that vanishes from the tray before you know it—cheese pulls guaranteed.
  • It brings all the best flavors of a loaded cheeseburger, minus the mess and with a delightful crunch in every bite.
02 -
  • If you try to overstuff them, the cheese finds its way out—less is more when filling the dough!
  • Brushing the tops too heavily with egg can make them look patchy instead of evenly glossy.
03 -
  • Let the beef mixture cool before stuffing—hot filling tears the biscuit dough.
  • Layer cheddar under the beef to keep the bottom from getting soggy and ensure melty cheese throughout.
