“These Irresistible Bites Are My Husband’s Ultimate Weakness – He Can’t Resist the Whole Tray!”

Sausage balls are a favorite appetizer or snack, crafted from a blend of sausage, cheese, and a touch of flour or biscuit mix. Rolled into bite-sized balls and baked until perfectly golden, these treats are a flavorful addition to any gathering, party, or casual snack time. They’re delicious on their own or with a dipping sauce, and best of all, they’re incredibly easy to make!

Here’s a simple recipe for sausage balls:

Ingredients:

• 1 pound breakfast sausage (mild or spicy)
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup biscuit mix (such as Bisquick)
• 1/4 cup milk (optional for added moisture)
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional, for extra flavor)
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper (optional)

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sausage, cheddar cheese, biscuit mix, and any optional ingredients like garlic powder or black pepper. Mix thoroughly until everything is evenly incorporated. Using your hands for mixing can help achieve a more consistent texture.
3. Shape into Balls: Roll small portions of the mixture into balls about the size of a golf ball. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased.
4. Bake: Bake the sausage balls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the sausage is cooked through and they are golden brown.
5. Serve and Enjoy: Let them cool for a few minutes before serving. These sausage balls can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.

Customize the flavors to your taste by adjusting the spices or adding different types of cheese. Enjoy your tasty sausage balls!
