# How-To Steps:
01 - Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a skillet over medium heat, sauté diced onion until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add ground beef, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook until meat is browned, then drain excess fat.
03 - Stir in ketchup, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and chopped pickle. Mix thoroughly, remove skillet from heat, and let filling cool slightly.
04 - Flatten each biscuit round on a clean surface. Place 1 tablespoon beef mixture and 1/2 tablespoon shredded cheddar in the center. Top each with a mozzarella cube.
05 - Gently fold dough around the fillings, pinching edges tightly to seal and form a ball. Arrange on prepared baking sheet with seam side down.
06 - Brush each assembled bomb lightly with beaten egg. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
07 - Bake in preheated oven for 15 to 18 minutes, or until pastry is golden brown.
08 - Allow bombs to cool briefly before serving. Accompany with your choice of dipping sauces.
# Expert Advice:
01 -
- The golden biscuit crust hides molten cheese that stretches with every bite—trust me, this never gets old.
- They turn ordinary weeknights into a hands-on, laugh-filled eating experience, perfect for sharing around a table or the TV.
02 -
- If you overfill the dough, some cheese will almost always find a way out and scorch on the pan—less is more.
- The moment you let the beef mix cool before filling, the cheese actually stays where it should instead of melting in transit.
03 -
- Chill the beef mixture before assembly; it makes scooping and stuffing tidier.
- A quick brush of egg wash isn’t just pretty—it locks in moisture and ensures the perfect bite.
