SAUSAGE BALLS


1 (11.36-oz.) package Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 1/4 cups sharp cheddar, shredded
1 pound breakfast sausage, uncooked

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400ºF. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, add biscuit mix and seasoning pack (1 package), cream cheese (8-ounce), sharp cheddar (1 1/4 cups), and uncooked sausage (1 pound).

Using a hand-held electric mixer, beat until mixture is evenly combined.

Using a cookie scoop, shape into 1-inch balls, squeezing sausage balls so they hold their forms. Place on baking sheet.

Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes.

Bake in the preheated oven, until brown, about 20 to 25 minutes or until the internal temperature reached 160°F when measured with an instant-read thermometer. Best served warm.

You should get about 45 balls.

You can keep warm in a crockpot once cooked.  Just put paper towel on bottom first and under lid to catch all the extra moisture.
