Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the sausage with the cream cheese with a sturdy spoon or with your hands until it's all well combined.
  • Add in the Bisquick baking mix and stir until combined and then gently stir in the shredded cheddar cheese.
  • Using a 1 inch cookie scoop, from the mixture into 1 inch balls and place them on the baking sheet leaving room between each one so that they get cooked all the way through.
  • Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to chill.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through the baking time, until they are cooked through and browned.
  • Remove from the oven, let rest for 5 minutes and then they are ready to serve and enjoy!

Notes

Based on the size of your baking sheet and sausage balls, you may need an extra baking sheet. Mine made approximately 36 sausage balls and I was able to fit them all on 1 large baking sheet.
If you are sensitive to heat, you can use regular pork sausage instead of the hot pork sausage.
You can use a hand held mixer or stand up mixer to mix the ingredients together but since the mixture is thick, it does easily get stuck to the beaters so I prefer mixing by hand.
If you like your sausage balls extra cheesy, you can easily add in more cheese based on your preference.
Refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
