Ingredients: Cheesy Sausage Biscuit Bites
- 1 pound hot sausage (or mild sausage)
- 2 cans refrigerated biscuits
- ½ cup shredded mild cheddar cheese
- ½ cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1½ tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
How to Make Cheesy Sausage Biscuit Bites
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a standard muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
- Cook the sausage in a large skillet over medium heat until browned and cooked through. Drain most of the grease, then transfer the sausage to a large mixing bowl.
- Add the mild cheddar, sharp cheddar, softened cream cheese, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir until the mixture is well combined.
- Separate each biscuit and split it in half horizontally. Press each piece into a muffin cup, working the dough up the sides to form a small cup.
- Evenly divide the sausage mixture among the biscuit cups.
- Bake for 13–15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
- Let cool for a few minutes before serving warm.
Pro Tips For Making This Recipe
- Let the cream cheese soften before mixing so it blends easily with the sausage.
- Don't overfill the biscuit cups or the filling may bubble over while baking.
- Use hot sausage for extra flavor or substitute mild sausage for a less spicy version.
- Spray the muffin tin well to make removing the bites easy.
