- 2 tablespoons butter, melted

2. Cook the Beef Filling
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks. Once browned, drain any excess grease to avoid a soggy filling. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes until they soften. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper for added depth of flavor. Remove the skillet from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.

3. Assemble the Biscuit Bombs
Flatten each biscuit dough piece into a round disc using your hands or a rolling pin. Place a slice of cheese in the center of each disc, followed by a spoonful of the beef mixture. Carefully fold the edges of the dough over the filling, pinching it together to seal tightly. Shape each into a ball and place them seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
4. Bake the Biscuit Bombs
Brush the tops of each biscuit bomb with melted butter. Sprinkle with garlic powder and sesame seeds if desired. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and are cooked through.
5. Serve and Enjoy
Serve these Cheesy Beef Biscuit Bombs warm. They’re best enjoyed fresh from the oven when the cheese is gooey and the biscuits are soft and buttery.
Quick Tips:
- Cheese Choices: Feel free to experiment with different cheeses like cheddar, mozzarella, or pepper jack for a unique twist.
- Add Some Heat: For those who love a spicy kick, add chopped jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce to the beef mixture.
- Make Ahead: These can be assembled ahead of time and stored in the fridge. Just bake them fresh when ready to serve.
