Sausage Balls Recipe

These irresistible sausage balls are a crowd-pleasing favorite, packed with the bold flavor of Aunt Della's Jalapeño Cheddar Dip Mix and cheesy goodness. Perfect for parties, game days, or any casual gathering!

Ingredients:

• 1 package Aunt Della's Jalapeño Cheddar Dip Mix
• 3 cups Bisquick baking mix
• 1 pound pork breakfast sausage
• 1–2 cups grated cheddar cheese (adjust to your cheesiness preference)
• Splash of milk (optional, for easier mixing)

Instructions:

• Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
• Mix the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Aunt Della's Jalapeño Cheddar Dip Mix, Bisquick, sausage, and grated cheddar cheese. Mix thoroughly with your hands or a sturdy spoon until all ingredients are evenly blended. If the mixture feels too dry, add a splash of milk to help bind it together.
• Form the Balls: Roll the mixture into walnut-sized balls, about 1–1.5 inches in diameter. For easier cleanup and even cooking, place them on a wire rack set over the cookie sheet.
• Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the sausage balls are golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 160°F (71°C) if you're checking with a thermometer.
• Serve: Serve hot with BBQ sauce, ranch dressing, or your favorite dipping sauce.

Aunt Della's Tip:

To achieve perfectly crispy sausage balls, bake them on a wire rack over the cookie sheet. This allows the heat to circulate evenly, ensuring a crispy exterior without excess grease.

Enjoy these savory bites that are sure to become a family tradition!
