Ingredients:
1 lb ground sausage (your choice of mild or spicy)
1 (10 oz) can Rotel diced tomatoes and green chilies, drained
8 oz cream cheese, softened
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp garlic powder
½ tsp onion powder
½ tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
½ tsp cayenne pepper (optional for heat)
1 cup shredded cheese for topping (optional)
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground sausage, cream cheese, and drained Rotel. Mix until well combined.
Add Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Gradually add the dry mixture to the sausage mixture, stirring until fully incorporated. Then fold in the shredded cheddar cheese.
Shape the Balls: Use your hands to form the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on a greased or lined baking sheet.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the sausage balls are golden brown and cooked through. If using, sprinkle the additional shredded cheese on top during the last 5 minutes of baking.
Serve: Let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!
Tips
Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or frozen for longer storage.
