Ingredients
-1 lb ground beef sausage
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 can (10 oz) Rotel diced tomatoes with green chilies, well drained
- 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1½ cups Bisquick baking mix
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix sausage, softened cream cheese, drained Rotel, cheddar, baking mix, garlic powder, and pepper in a large bowl until evenly combined.
- Shape into 1-inch balls and arrange on the baking sheet, leaving a little space between each.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, until golden brown and the ground beef sausage reaches 160°F (71°C) internally.
- Rest for 3–5 minutes, then serve warm and cheesy!
Harold’s Tip: Drain the Rotel very well to prevent soggy sausage balls. Serve with ranch dressing or spicy dipping sauce for extra flavor!
