Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prep the Beef Mixture: In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef, breaking it apart until fully cooked (5-7 minutes). Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Drain excess grease and let cool slightly.
  2. Roll Out the Biscuit Dough: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Open biscuit dough and separate into halves. Roll each piece into a flat round, about 4 inches in diameter.
  3. Fill the Dough Rounds: Place a heaping tablespoon of cooled beef mixture in the center of each dough round. Sprinkle with freshly shredded cheese. Fold the edges over the filling and pinch seams securely.
  4. Bake the Bombs: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place filled bombs seam-side down and bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
  5. Brush with Garlic Butter: Melt butter with minced garlic in a bowl. Brush mixture over baked bombs to enhance richness.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: Let cool for a minute before serving. Pair with dipping sauces like ketchup or ranch.
