Tips for Perfect Sausage Balls:
- Temperature matters: Use room-temperature sausage and cold cheese for easier mixing and to prevent the cheese from melting out during baking. Chill formed balls in the fridge for 30 minutes before baking for a neater shape.
- Cheese choice: Pre-shredded cheese works best as it prevents excessive melting and saves time.
- Customize: Try spicy sausage for extra flavor or swap cheddar for pepper Jack or your favorite melty cheese.
