# Ingredients:

→ Filling

01 - 450 g ground beef
02 - Salt to taste
03 - Freshly ground black pepper to taste
04 - Garlic powder to taste
05 - Onion powder to taste
06 - 15 ml Worcestershire sauce
07 - 100 g shredded cheddar cheese or mozzarella
08 - Optional: chopped cooked bacon
09 - Optional: sliced pickles
10 - Optional: caramelized onions

→ Dough

11 - 1 tube refrigerated biscuit or pizza dough, cut into 8–12 rounds and flattened

→ Topping

12 - 30 ml melted unsalted butter
13 - 5 g minced garlic or garlic powder
14 - 15 g grated Parmesan cheese
15 - Optional: chopped fresh parsley

# Instructions:

01 - Sauté ground beef in a skillet over medium heat until fully browned. Drain excess fat and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Allow mixture to cool slightly, then fold in shredded cheese and any desired optional fillings.
02 - Flatten dough rounds and place 1–2 tablespoons of beef filling in the center. Pinch the edges together to seal, rolling gently to form a smooth ball.
03 - Position dough balls seam-side down on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Brush with melted butter blended with minced garlic, then sprinkle each with grated Parmesan.
04 - Preheat oven to 190°C. Bake assembled balls for 15–18 minutes or until golden brown and puffed.
05 - Remove from oven, brush with additional garlic butter, and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve warm accompanied by preferred dipping sauces such as ranch, aioli, or spicy mayonnaise.

# Notes:

01 - For enhanced flavor, incorporate caramelized onions or crispy bacon pieces into the filling.
02 - Allow the cooked beef mixture to cool before blending with cheese to prevent melting during assembly.
