Cheddar Cheese: One cup of shredded cheddar adds a tangy creaminess that complements the savory ingredients.

Refrigerated Biscuit Dough: One can (16.3 oz) of refrigerated dough makes this recipe a breeze, creating a buttery, flaky crust.

Worcestershire Sauce: One tablespoon adds a rich umami flavor to the beef mixture.

Garlic Powder: One teaspoon enhances the overall savory taste.

Onion Powder: One teaspoon brings extra depth to the filling.

Salt and Pepper: Season to taste for balance.

Egg: One beaten egg for a golden, glossy finish on the bombs.

Sesame Seeds (Optional): Sprinkling these on top adds texture and visual appeal.

Step-by-Step Cooking Instructions

Step 1: Preheat Your Oven
Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper or light grease to avoid sticking.

Step 2: Cook the Beef and Onion
In a large skillet, cook the ground beef and onion over medium heat until the beef browns and the onion softens. Drain any excess fat.

Step 3: Season the Beef Mixture
Mix in Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, then remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 4: Prepare the Biscuit Dough
Flatten each biscuit dough piece into a 4-5 inch circle, giving enough space for the filling.

Step 5: Fill the Dough
Place a spoonful of beef, crumbled bacon, and a pinch of cheddar in the center of each dough circle.
