How to make savory Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs with seasoned ground beef, gooey cheese, and flaky dough that your family will absolutely devour.
Ingredients
- The Star Players:
- 1 lb 90/10 lean ground beef
- 2 (8 oz) cans refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1.5 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- Aromatic & Savory Enhancers:
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 small yellow onion, finely diced
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (for filling)
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tbsp ketchup
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- Seasoning Essentials:
- 1 tsp kosher salt, or to taste
- 1/2 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- Finishing Touches:
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Sauté Beef: Brown ground beef with finely diced onion and minced garlic until no longer pink. Drain any excess fat from the pan, ensuring your base is savory and ready for flavoring. This forms the delicious foundation for your Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs.
- Flavor Beef: Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, Dijon mustard, kosher salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Cook for another minute, allowing the rich flavors to meld beautifully. Let the mixture cool slightly before proceeding to the next step.
- Mix Filling: Once the beef mixture has cooled, gently fold in the shredded sharp cheddar cheese and grated Parmesan cheese. This creates the gooey, cheesy core of your Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs. Be careful not to overmix; just combine.
- Form Bombs: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate into triangles. Place a spoonful of the beef and cheese mixture onto the wide end of each triangle. Roll tightly towards the point, then pinch all seams firmly to seal the filling inside.
- Bake Bombs: Arrange your formed bombs on a baking sheet. Brush each one generously with melted unsalted butter and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 18-22 minutes until golden brown and gloriously flaky. These are your perfect Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs!
- Garnish & Serve: Allow the freshly baked bombs to cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh chopped parsley for a vibrant finish. Serve your Ultimate Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs warm with your favorite dipping sauces for an unforgettable meal.
Notes
Cool the beef mixture slightly before adding cheese to prevent premature melting and ensure easy bomb formation.
Store cooked bombs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days; reheat in oven or air fryer.
Substitute cheddar and Parmesan with other good melting cheeses like mozzarella, Monterey Jack, or pepper jack for variety.
Serve warm with classic dipping sauces like ketchup or ranch, or alongside a crisp green salad or pickle spears.
Prepare the beef filling up to 2 days ahead, then refrigerate. Assemble bombs with fresh dough just before baking for best results.
