- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Dough and Toppings

- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons finely minced garlic
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare for baking.
- Cook Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked, breaking it apart with a spatula. Drain excess fat to keep the filling moist but not greasy.
- Season and Combine: Season the cooked beef with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted and well combined, making a cheesy beef mixture.
- Prepare Dough: Roll out each biscuit dough piece until approximately 1/4 inch thick to create a flat surface for filling.

Notes
- For crispier bombs, place a wire rack on the baking sheet to allow air circulation underneath.
- You can substitute cheddar cheese with mozzarella or pepper jack for a different flavor profile.
- Ensure the edges of the dough are sealed tightly to prevent filling leakage during baking.
- These can be made ahead and refrigerated before baking; just add a few extra minutes to the baking time if baking from cold.
- Serve with ketchup, mustard, or your favorite dipping sauce.
