Ingredients

  • 1 lb. bulk pork sausage
  • 8 oz block cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 1/4 cups Bisquick baking mix

Instructions

Prepare
    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly spray a rimmed baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray, or line with parchment paper.
Mix
  1. To a large mixing bowl, add sausage, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, and Bisquick baking mix.
  2. Mix together until well combined. I like to use my hands for this, but a stand mixer is my second favorite method (I find using the dough hook works best).
Scoop and roll
  1. Use a small cookie scoop (I use the 1 Tbsp size) to scoop out evenly sized portions, then use your hands to roll into round balls. Add sausage balls to prepared baking sheet, repeating until there's no sausage mixture left.
  2. If you don't have a cookie scoop, you can use a Tbsp measuring spoon. This just helps ensure all the sausage balls are even in size, and they'll all have the same cooking time.
Bake
  1. Bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown and cooked to an internal temperature of at least 160°F.
Serve
  1. Serve warm, with desired dipping sauce. Honey mustard, spicy ranch, bbq sauce, etc.
