## **👩🍳 Instructions**
### **1️⃣ Prepare the Cheeseburger Filling**
1. In a large skillet, cook the **ground beef** over medium heat until browned and fully cooked, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks.
2. Add the **chopped onion** and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until softened.
3. Stir in **garlic powder, ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce**, and season with **salt and pepper** to taste. Let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
4. Remove from heat and stir in the **shredded cheddar cheese** until it’s melted and the mixture is creamy and cohesive. Set aside.
### **2️⃣ Assemble the Cheeseburger Pockets**
1. Preheat your oven to **375°F (190°C)**.
2. Open the package of **refrigerated biscuit dough** and flatten each biscuit into a small circle using your fingers or a rolling pin.
3. Place a heaping spoonful of the **cheeseburger filling** in the center of each dough circle. Be sure not to overfill to prevent spilling.
4. Fold the dough over the filling to form a half-moon shape, then pinch the edges tightly to seal the pockets.
5. Place the pockets on a **baking sheet lined with parchment paper** or lightly greased.
### **3️⃣ Bake & Serve**
1. Brush the tops of the pockets with a little **olive oil** to help them brown and become crispy while baking.
2. Bake for **12-15 minutes**, or until the pockets are golden brown and cooked through.
3. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.
### **4️⃣ Customize & Enjoy**
1. Serve your cheeseburger pockets as-is, or add your favorite **burger toppings** like **pickles, lettuce, tomatoes**, or a dollop of ketchup and mustard.
2. Enjoy them warm as a delicious family meal or snack!
