Imagine perfect cheesy little burgers in mini bite-sized pockets! This Cheeseburger Bomb Recipe would be perfect for entertaining. Snacks that make you happy.
Nothing. Nothing is better than a seriously delicious cheeseburger. Right? I mean, if you find yourself here, we should totally agree on that. Because, cheeseburgers are kind of my thing. So, the other day when I found myself coming up with ideas for entertaining, football parties, and how to make portable burger awesomeness – Cheeseburger Bombs – I decided to grab a roll of biscuits and get to work.
These tiny little patties wrapped in pop-and-fresh baked up goodness made for pint-sized happiness. Serve them with a little takeaway cups of dipping sauce, think ketchup, mustard or have a build your own sauce bar encouraging people to mix and match their toppings. We all love a little mayo swirled in with ketchup now and then. Or some honey sriracha sauce would be pretty kicking on the go. See, the possibilities are endless.
Think about that as you build your menu plan for the upcoming big game. (Oh, and if you are looking for inspiration – you may want to check out these other seriously delicious appetizers)
Ps. these are quick and easy, like whoa. Which makes them a serious bonus. You could even make the patties ahead of time so that you just bake and go to serve warm when ready. And as another bonus (because I’m all about bonuses these days, like the Oprah of bite-sized burgers) because these are all wrapped up they are far less likely to make a mess.
Unless you can’t handle the mini dipping cups. You may want a chaperone on those.
Hard to balance beers, cheeseburger bombs, and tiny cups of flavor without things getting a little risky. Priorities, though.
Now, let’s break some bread.

Can you make these ahead of time?
I would be cautious making these ahead. I wouldn’t want the fat from the beef to make the dough soggy. However, if you premade and froze, then baked from frozen, they may work. Hmmm now I want to try that now!
Do you think it would still be an issue if i made them the day before for Super Bowl?
Thank you!!
If you make them – through baking – then reheat in the oven the next day, they may be a bit dry, but ok.
Could you put them in a cupcake tin
Of course! 🙂
You certainly could 🙂
