Directions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cook the beef: In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until fully cooked through, then drain any excess fat.
- Season the beef: Season the beef with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and let it melt into the beef mixture.
- Prepare the biscuit dough: Roll out each biscuit until it’s about 1/4 inch thick. Place about 2 tablespoons of the cheesy beef mixture in the center of each biscuit.
- Form the cheeseburger puffs: Carefully fold the edges of the dough around the filling and pinch the edges to seal, forming a ball. Place the seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Garlic butter topping: In a small bowl, combine melted butter and finely minced garlic. Brush the tops of each cheeseburger with the garlic butter.
- Add Parmesan: Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top of each cheeseburger.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy!

Variations
