- Add in the cheese. Hand mixing might be needed. Stir until combined.1 Cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Scoop up sausage ball mixture using a 1-inch scoop and place on baking sheet, with space between the balls.
- Bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown and the cheese is crisp.
- Remove from the baking sheet immediately if you did not use parchment or a silicone mat.
Notes
- Grate your own cheese. You will get a better sausage ball in the end.
- Do not pack or scoop up the bisquick when measuring it. Scoop it into the cup loosely and use the back side of a butter knife to level.
- Use a sharp or extra sharp cheddar cheese. The cheese stands up nicely to the bisquick.
- Use a cookie scoop to keep a consistent sized ball. Smaller is better and consistency is key to a delicious sausage ball.
- Use room temperature sausage. The room temperature meat will give off the fat easier and incorporate into the bisquick better.
- Don’t over bake. Once they are golden brown, put them from the oven.
- If baking directly on a cookie sheet, immediately remove from the pan upon removing from the oven.
