Step 5: Fill the Biscuit Bombs
Place a spoonful of the beef filling in the center of each flattened biscuit.
Add extra cheese on top of the beef. A small cube of cheddar, American cheese, or mozzarella works especially well because it melts into the center.
Do not overfill the biscuits. Too much filling can make them burst open during baking.
Step 6: Seal the Dough
Pull the edges of the biscuit dough up and around the filling.
Pinch the edges tightly together to seal. Roll the dough gently between your hands to form a smooth ball.
Place each sealed biscuit bomb seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Keeping the seam underneath helps prevent the filling from leaking out.
Step 7: Add the Garlic Butter Topping
In a small bowl, mix melted butter with garlic powder and chopped parsley.
Brush the tops of the biscuit bombs with the garlic butter mixture.
Sprinkle sesame seeds on top for a cheeseburger-style look. This also gives the biscuit bombs a nice finished appearance.
Step 8: Bake Until Golden
Preheat the oven to 375°F / 190°C.
Bake the biscuit bombs for 15 to 20 minutes, or until they are puffed, golden brown, and cooked through.
The tops should be shiny and lightly crisp, while the inside should be hot and cheesy.
Oven times can vary, so check them near the end. The dough should not look pale or raw around the bottom.
Step 9: Let Them Rest
Remove the biscuit bombs from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
The filling will be very hot, and resting helps the cheese settle slightly. This also makes them easier to pick up and eat.
Brush with a little more garlic butter while they are still warm for extra flavor.
Step 10: Serve and Enjoy
Serve Cheeseburger Biscuit Bombs warm with dipping sauces.
They go well with fries, potato wedges, coleslaw, salad, onion rings, roasted vegetables, or a simple bowl of soup.
For a party platter, arrange them on a tray with small bowls of ketchup, burger sauce, ranch, and barbecue sauce.
Tips for the Best Cheeseburger Biscuit Bombs
Use thicker biscuit dough for the best texture. Thin dough may tear or leak.
Cool the beef filling before stuffing. Hot filling makes the dough sticky and difficult to seal.
Drain the beef well. Too much grease can make the biscuit bottoms soft.
Seal the dough tightly. Pinch the edges firmly so the cheese stays inside.
Place the seam side down. This helps the bombs hold their shape while baking.
Avoid overfilling. A balanced amount of beef and cheese gives the best result.
Flavor Variations
For bacon cheeseburger biscuit bombs, add cooked bacon bits to the beef filling.
For spicy cheeseburger bombs, add jalapeños, hot sauce, chili flakes, or pepper jack cheese.
For BBQ cheeseburger bombs, replace ketchup and mustard with barbecue sauce.
For pickle cheeseburger bombs, add chopped pickles inside and serve with burger sauce.
For pizza burger bombs, add marinara sauce, mozzarella, and Italian seasoning.
Storage and Reheating
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
To reheat, place them in the oven at 350°F / 175°C for 8 to 10 minutes. You can also reheat them in an air fryer for 4 to 6 minutes.
Microwaving works for a quick option, but the biscuit may become softer.
