❤️ 1. Why You’ll Love These

These bites combine buttery biscuit dough with creamy, savory sausage and cheddar—a bite-sized party in your mouth. Easy to make, fun to serve, and always devoured fast—no wonder they’re a hit at every gathering!

🛒 2. Ingredients You’ll Need

  • 1 lb breakfast sausage (choose mild or spicy)

  • 1 block (8 oz) cream cheese, softened

  • 2 cans (16.3 oz each) refrigerated biscuits (like Pillsbury Grands)

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • 1 tsp garlic powder (optional, but adds a nice savory touch)

🍳 3. Quick Recipe Overview

  1. Cook sausage until browned, then drain.

  2. Mix sausage with cream cheese, cheddar, and garlic powder.

  3. Flatten each biscuit and fill with a heaping tablespoon of sausage mix.

  4. Pinch into balls, bake 12–15 min until golden.

🥄 4. Step‑by‑Step Instructions

Step 1 – Cook the Sausage
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned and crumbly. Drain any excess grease.

Step 2 – Mix the Filling
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked sausage, softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar, and garlic powder (if using). Mix until fully blended.

Step 3 – Prep the Biscuits
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment. Flatten each biscuit into a ~4-inch circle.

Step 4 – Fill & Seal
Place about 1 heaping tablespoon of the sausage mixture in the center of each flattened biscuit. Fold edges over the top, pinch tightly to seal, and place seam-side down on the baking sheet.

Step 5 – Bake to Golden Perfection
Bake for 12–15 minutes, until the biscuit bites are golden brown and puffed. Serve warm!

🧊 5. Make‑Ahead & Serving Tips

  • Make Ahead: Assemble bites, refrigerate up to 6 hours before baking.

  • Freezer-Friendly: After baking and cooling, freeze fully. Reheat at 350 °F for 10–12 min.

  • Serving: Keep warm in a 200 °F oven during parties. Perfect with mustard, hot sauce, or ranch dip!

🔁 6. Variations & Swap Ideas

  • Lower-Fat Option: Use turkey sausage and reduced-fat cream cheese.

  • Herb & Veggie Twist: Add sautéed spinach or green onions to the mix.

  • Spicy Kick: Stir in diced jalapeños or switch to pepper jack cheese.

📊 7. Nutrition & Portion Note

  • Approx. 290 kcal per serving (2 bites).

  • High in protein and indulgently cheesy—so two bites go a long way!

  • Add sides like fruit or veggie sticks to round it into a balanced snack or small meal.

📝 8. Kristy’s Personal Tip

These are my go-to tailgate treat—the creamy center and crisp biscuit are irresistible. I often make a double batch, because they disappear in minutes! Keep ’em warm in the oven during your event—they’ll stay soft, cheesy, and oh-so-satisfying.
