Step-by-Step Instructions

Ready to whip up these cheesy, flavorful bombs? Follow these easy steps:

Step 1: Preheat Your Oven

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) . Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it for easy cleanup.

Step 2: Prepare the Meatballs

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix gently with your hands until just combined—avoid overmixing to keep the bombs tender.

Step 3: Shape the Bombs

1. Divide the meat mixture into 8–10 equal portions (about 2 tablespoons each). Flatten each portion into a disc.
2. Place a small cube of cheddar cheese in the center of each disc and carefully wrap the meat around the cheese, sealing it completely. Roll the filled meat into a smooth ball.
