Jimmy Dean Sausage Cheese Balls

Ingredients

  • 2 (16 ounce) packages Regular Flavor Jimmy Dean Pork Sausage
  • 4 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
  • 1.5 cups all-purpose baking mix
  • 0.5 cup finely chopped onion
  • 0.5 cup finely chopped celery
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 2 teaspoons black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  2. Combine sausage, cheese, baking mix, onion, celery, garlic, and black pepper in a large mixing bowl; stir well until combined. Form into balls about 1-inch in diameter; place on an ungreased baking sheet.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C). Cool on the pan for 5 minutes before serving with cocktail forks or toothpicks.
