CREAM CHEESE SAUSAGE BALLS



Cream Cheese Sausage Balls image

Sausage balls are an entertaining standby for me, but they were always admittedly a little dry - until I tried adding cream cheese, and better balls were born. I'll never go back!

Provided by Chelsey

Categories     Appetizers and Snacks     Meat and Poultry     Pork

Time 35m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 pound bulk pork sausage
1 ¼ cups baking mix (such as Bisquick ®)
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 (8 ounce) package shredded sharp Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Blend sausage, baking mix, cream cheese, and Cheddar cheese together using the dough hook attachment of an electric stand mixer on very low speed until well combined, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Roll into 1-inch balls and place on a rimmed baking stone.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until browned and no longer pink in the centers, 22 to 25 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of cheeses: Feel free to mix and match your favorite cheeses to create a unique flavor profile. Cheddar, mozzarella, Parmesan, and cream cheese are all great options.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the dough tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help it hold its shape better in the oven.
  • Bake the sausage cheese balls until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through and have a crispy exterior.
  • Serve the sausage cheese balls warm: They are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven, when the cheese is melted and gooey.

Conclusion:

Sausage cheese balls are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They can be made ahead of time and reheated, making them a great option for parties or potlucks. With a variety of dipping sauces to choose from, sausage cheese balls are sure to be a hit with everyone.
