Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 lbs extra-sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 lb room temperature sage-flavored pork sausage
- 1 lb room temperature hot pork sausage
Base Ingredient:
- 6 cups Bisquick baking mix
Instructions
- Thoroughly blend Bisquick® baking mix, shredded Cheddar cheese, and crumbled sausage in a spacious mixing vessel, ensuring complete ingredient integration through manual kneading.
- Gently shape the mixed composition into compact spherical formations, approximately one inch in diameter, maintaining consistent sizing for uniform cooking.
- Strategically arrange the crafted morsels onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, positioning them with slight separation to promote even heat circulation.
- Transfer the prepared pan into a preheated oven calibrated at 350°F, allowing the savory spheres to transform into golden-hued, crisp external textures while maintaining tender interiors.
- Monitor the baking process for 20-25 minutes, verifying doneness through visual cues of rich amber coloration and complete structural solidity.
- Remove from thermal environment and permit brief cooling interval, which helps solidify structural integrity and mitigate potential heat-related burning risks.
- Serve warmly alongside complementary dipping sauces, presenting these protein-rich appetizers as an inviting culinary offering suitable for gatherings or casual snacking experiences.
Notes
- Ensure meat reaches safe internal temperature of 160°F to prevent foodborne illness.
- Swap regular sausage with turkey sausage for a leaner protein option.
- Use freshly shredded cheese instead of pre-packaged for better melting and richer flavor.
- Add a pinch of red pepper flakes or cayenne for extra spicy kick if desired.
