BACON CHEESEBURGER DIP BOMBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a large saute pan over medium heat, cook bacon until crisp, about 3-5 minutes. Drain on a towel-lined plate. Drain all grease from pan except 1 tablespoon.
• Return pan to medium heat and cook onions and garlic until softened, about 3-5 minutes. Stir in the ground beef and cook, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Stir in the worcestershire sauce, diced tomatoes, cream cheese, relish, scallions, crisp bacon, salt and pepper. Cook until cream cheese is melted, then remove from heat and let cool.
• Unroll the pizza dough and cut into 18 squares. Working with one at a time, place about 2 teaspoons shredded cheddar cheese into the center of the dough, then top with about a tablespoon of the beef mixture. Top with a teaspoon of cheddar cheese. Pull the corners of the dough up to meet in the middle and pinch to close. Place the dough, seam side down, about 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
• Brush the tops with beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake for 25 minutes until golden. Serve on a bed of shredded lettuce with relish, mustard and ketchup on the side.

BACON MAC AND CHEESE BOMBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Spray 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray; set aside. Stir together mac and cheese and bacon in medium bowl; set aside.
• Unroll pizza dough; press into a 15x9 rectangle. Cut into 24 square pieces. Divide mac and cheese mixture evenly and place in the center of each piece. Pull edges of each piece of dough up and around mac and cheese mixture to enclose completely; pinching seams to seal. Place seam-side down in pie plate.
• Brush tops of dough with butter. Sprinkle evenly with parsley flakes and garlic powder. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until top is golden brown. Serve bombs with ranch dressing.

BACON-CHEESE PIZZA BOMBS

Steps:

• Place a pizza stone on the middle oven rack and preheat to 500 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place it on top of the pizza stone.
• Warm the olive oil in a small skillet or saucepan over medium heat. Add the rosemary, thyme, red pepper flakes and garlic. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly. Stir in the parsley and season with salt. Set aside.
• Cook the bacon in a medium skillet over medium-low heat, turning occasionally, until crisp, about 10 minutes. Drain on a paper towel¿lined plate, then crumble.
• Lightly dust a work surface with flour. Flatten each piece of dough and shape into a 3 1/2-inch round. Spread 1/4 teaspoon tomato paste in the center of each round, leaving a small border around the edge. Tear the basil into pieces; add to the center of each round, along with about 1 teaspoon crumbled bacon each. Top each with a few cubes of mozzarella. Season with salt and red pepper flakes. Very lightly brush the edge of the dough with water. Bring the edge of the dough toward the center, lightly pleating to form a tight enclosure; pinch to seal. Place seam-side down on a sheet of parchment paper. Using a metal skewer dipped in flour, make a hole in the center of each dough ball to create a steam vent.
• Remove the hot baking sheet from the oven, then carefully place all the dough balls on it, spacing them 2 inches apart. Brush them liberally with the herb oil. Transfer the baking sheet to the pizza stone and bake 5 minutes. Rotate the pan and bake until the dough is golden brown, about 10 more minutes. Remove from the oven and brush with more herb oil. Serve immediately with marinara sauce and the remaining herb oil for dipping.

CHEESEBURGER BOMBS WITH BACON

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Coat 16 cups of 2 muffin pans with cooking spray.

• Separate each biscuit dough portion in half to get 16 biscuits, stretching and pulling each into a circle about 1/4 inch thick. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the ground beef mixture into the center of each dough circle. Cut cheese into 16 cubes and insert each cube into the ground beef mixture. Wrap dough around the filling in the shape of a ball and pinch edges on the bottom together so biscuits are sealed around the filling.
• Set each biscuit seam side down in a muffin cup. Lightly spray the biscuit tops with cooking spray and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Serve with ketchup for dipping on the side.
