Ooey, Gooey Cheesy Meatballs

1 slice of bread

1/4 cup milk

1 pound ground beef

1 small onion, grated

1 tbsp sour cream

1 large egg

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp ground black pepper

1/4 cup mayonnaise

3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/4 cup grated Parmesan

 

Preheat the oven to 400.

Line a baking sheet with foil; then lightly coat the foil with nonstick spray.

In the bowl of a food processor, pulse the bread until they resemble crumbs.

Heat a small skillet over medium heat.

Add the bread crumbs & toast until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes.

In a small bowl, combine the toasted bread crumbs & milk; let stand until all of the milk is absorbed.

In a large bowl, add the breadcrumb mixture, ground beef, grated onion, sour cream, egg, salt & pepper.

Using a wooden spoon or clean hands, stir until well combined.

Roll the mixture into 1 1/4-to-1 1/2-inch meatballs & place on onto prepared baking sheet.

Drizzle a small amount of mayonnaise on each meatball. (A squeeze bottle or Ziploc bag is perfect for this.)

In a small bowl, combine the mozzarella & Parmesan. Sprinkle each meatball with 1 tablespoon cheese mixture.

Place into oven & bake until the cheese has melted & is slightly golden brown, about 15-20 minutes. Broil for an additional 2-5 minutes, or until the cheese has crisped up.

Serve immediately.

***My momma used to cook hamburger steaks.  These resemble them but with a different twist of taste & size.  My boys love these & have since become a favorite.
