Rotel Cream Cheese Sausage Balls
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Uncooked sausage | 1 pound |
| Cream cheese, softened | One 8-ounce package |
| Rotel diced tomatoes and green chilies, drained | One 10-ounce can |
| Bisquick mix | 1.5 cups |
| Shredded Mexican cheese blend | 2 cups |
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F so it’s ready when you are.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sausage, softened cream cheese, fully drained Rotel, Bisquick, and shredded Mexican cheese. Mix thoroughly using a hand mixer or a sturdy spoon until everything comes together smoothly.
Scoop out portions of the mixture and roll them into 1-inch balls, keeping the size consistent so they cook evenly.
Place the sausage balls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, then bake for 18–20 minutes or until the bottoms turn golden brown and the centers are fully cooked. Serve warm and enjoy these irresistible, make-ahead-friendly bites.
