Forming the Bombs
- Take a biscuit dough round and flatten it out in your palm.
- Place a spoonful of the beef filling in the center, along with a square of cheddar cheese.
- Carefully pinch the edges of the dough together to seal the filling inside, forming a nice round ball.
Baking

- Place the sealed dough balls seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Brush each bomb generously with melted butter, then sprinkle garlic powder and grated Parmesan cheese over them.
- Bake the bombs for 12 to 15 minutes, or until they turn a beautiful golden brown.
Finishing Touch

- Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
For maximum flavor, consider letting the beef filling rest in the fridge for about 30 minutes before assembling the bombs. For a spicy kick, add diced jalapeños or hot sauce to the filling. Can be served with dipping sauces such as ranch or barbecue.
