For the Garlic Parmesan Topping:

• 3 tbsp melted butter
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (or 1 tsp dried)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

   • Spoon 1–2 tablespoons of beef mixture into the center.
   • Top with cheese.
4. Seal the bombs:
   • Fold the edges of the dough over the filling and pinch to seal tightly.
   • Place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
5. Make the garlic butter topping:
   • Mix melted butter with minced garlic, parsley, and Parmesan.
6. Brush and bake:
   • Brush each bomb with the garlic Parmesan butter.
   • Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until golden brown.
7. Finish and serve:
   • Brush with any leftover garlic butter after baking.

Tips

• Don’t overfill the dough or it might burst during baking.
• Let the filling cool slightly before wrapping to avoid soggy dough.
• Use toothpicks to hold the seams if they’re hard to close (remove before serving).
• Can substitute crescent roll dough if biscuit dough isn’t available.

Variations

• Add pickles or bacon bits to the filling.
• Use mozzarella or pepper jack cheese for a twist.
• Turn them into breakfast bombs by using scrambled eggs and sausage instead of beef.
• Use veggie crumbles for a vegetarian version.

Correction

If your bombs are leaking or not sealing:

• Make sure to flatten the dough enough to wrap fully around the filling.
• Pinch the seams firmly or use a fork to crimp the edges.
• Chill the filled bombs for 5–10 minutes before baking to help them hold shape.
