These bite-sized garlic parmesan cheeseburger bombs combine juicy ground beef and melted cheese wrapped in a golden, garlicky puff pastry crust. Perfect for snacking, game days, or casual parties, they deliver indulgent cheeseburger flavor in a convenient, crispy package.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef (80/20)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (100 g)
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (50 g), plus extra for topping
  • 2 sheets puff pastry, thawed
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 2 tbsp butter, melted
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine ground beef, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix gently but thoroughly.
  3. Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the beef mixture until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat and let cool slightly.
  4. Stir in shredded mozzarella cheese while the beef is still warm.
  5. On a lightly floured surface, unfold one sheet of thawed puff pastry into a 12×9 inch rectangle. Cut into 12 equal squares. Repeat with the second sheet for a total of 24 squares.
  6. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the beef and cheese filling into the center of each square. Fold the corners up and pinch to seal tightly, forming a pouch.
  7. In a small bowl, mix melted butter, minced garlic, and grated Parmesan cheese.
  8. Place the sealed bombs seam-side down on the baking sheet. Brush each generously with the garlic Parmesan butter mixture, then lightly brush with beaten egg.
  9. Bake for 15-18 minutes until the pastry is puffed and golden brown, rotating halfway through baking.
  10. Let the bombs rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

Do not overmix the beef to keep it tender. Pinch pastry edges firmly to prevent leaks. Bring assembled bombs to room temperature before baking for best puffiness. Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen unbaked. Reheat in oven to maintain crispiness. For dairy-free or gluten-free options, use vegan cheese and gluten-free puff pastry.
