Ingredients
- 1 box cheddar bay biscuit mix (11.36 ounce)
- 16 ounces breakfast sausage
- 16 ounces sharp cheddar cheese shredded
- ¼ cup milk as needed
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350˚F.
- In a large bowl, combine the biscuit mix, the breakfast sausage, and cheddar cheese together. Use your hands to work the mixture until it holds together. Add milk a little at a time if needed to moisten the dough and help it come together.
- Grab a small amount of the dough and squeeze it tightly with your hand to bring the dough together, then roll it between your hands to make about a 2 inch ball. Repeat with the dough until you form 32 sausage balls.
- Place the sausage balls about 1/2 inch apart on a baking sheet. The will expand slightly, but not much so they can be baked fairly close together. Bake for 18-22 minutes or until cooked through.
- Combine 2 tablespoons of butter with the included seasoning packet and mix. Once the Cheddar Bay Sausage Balls come out of the oven, brush with the garlic butter mixture.
