Description

Rotel Cream Cheese Sausage Balls are a deliciously cheesy and savory appetizer perfect for any gathering. Made with a blend of spicy Rotel tomatoes, creamy cheese, and flavorful sausage, these bite-sized balls are baked to golden perfection and offer a perfect balance of spice and creaminess.

Ingredients

Scale

Meat and Dairy

  • 1 pound sausage
  • 1 package cream cheese (8 oz)
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Other Ingredients

  • 1 can Rotel tomatoes (10 oz)
  • 2 cups biscuit mix

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it is at the right temperature for baking the sausage balls evenly.
  2. Mix Sausage and Cheese: In a large mixing bowl, combine the raw sausage, softened cream cheese, and the entire can of Rotel tomatoes. Stir the mixture thoroughly until it reaches a smooth and even consistency.
  3. Add Cheese and Biscuit Mix: Incorporate the shredded cheddar cheese and biscuit mix into the sausage mixture. Stir well until all ingredients are uniformly combined into a thick batter-like dough.
  4. Form Balls: Using your hands or a small spoon, form the mixture into balls roughly 1 inch in diameter. This size allows for even cooking and easy serving.
  5. Arrange and Bake: Place the formed sausage balls evenly spaced on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased. Bake them in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and are cooked through.

Notes

  • Serve the sausage balls warm for the best flavor and texture.
  • You can prepare these ahead of time and freeze them uncooked; bake straight from frozen cooling for a few extra minutes.
  • Adjust the spice level by choosing either mild or hot Rotel tomatoes based on your preference.
