Meat & Dairy
- 1 lb ground breakfast or Italian sausage
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded cheese (mozzarella, cheddar, or a blend)
Dough
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (10–12 biscuits)
Seasonings
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- Optional: parsley, garlic powder, or other herbs
- Cook the Sausage: Brown the ground sausage in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it apart until fully cooked and slightly crispy. Drain excess grease and let cool slightly.
- Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked sausage with softened cream cheese and shredded cheese. Stir until evenly mixed into a creamy, savory filling.
- Shape the Biscuit Bites: Separate biscuit dough into individual portions and flatten each slightly. Place a spoonful of the sausage and cream cheese mixture in the center, then fold the dough around the filling and pinch edges to seal tightly.
- Bake to Golden Perfection: Arrange the sealed bites on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the biscuit bites to cool for a few minutes to let the filling set, making them easier to eat and enhancing the flavors.
Notes
- Don’t overfill the biscuits to prevent bursting during baking.
- If dough feels soft, chill bites for 10 minutes before baking to make handling easier.
- Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
- Experiment with different cheeses to add depth and richness to the flavor.
- Keep filling cool to avoid softening the biscuit dough, making sealing difficult.
