Voodoo Balls Recipe

by

Step 1: Prepare the Voodoo Balls

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the ground sausage, shredded cheddar cheese, cream cheese, panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Mix until fully combined.
  3. Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each ball.

Step 2: Bake the Voodoo Balls

  1. Bake the sausage balls for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C).

Step 3: Make the Glaze

  1. While the Voodoo Balls are baking, prepare the glaze.
  2. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the honey, hot sauce, soy sauce, red pepper flakes, and melted butter.
  3. Stir and simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat.

Step 4: Coat the Voodoo Balls

  1. Once the sausage balls are cooked, transfer them to a large bowl.
  2. Pour the warm glaze over the balls and gently toss to coat them evenly.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

  1. Arrange the glazed Voodoo Balls on a serving platter.
  2. Garnish with chopped parsley or green onions for a pop of color (optional).
  3. Serve warm with toothpicks for easy grabbing.

Tips for Success

  • Adjust the Heat: For a milder version, reduce or omit the cayenne pepper and red pepper flakes. For extra spice, add more hot sauce or use a spicier variety.
  • Cheese Variety: Swap cheddar for pepper jack or mozzarella for a different flavor.
  • Make Ahead: Prepare the sausage balls and refrigerate them for up to 24 hours before baking.

Serving Suggestions

  • Pair with a creamy ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping.
  • Serve as an appetizer or alongside rice and veggies for a complete meal.
  • Add to a charcuterie board for a unique spicy-sweet addition.

Why These Voodoo Balls Are Irresistible

The balance of savory sausage, gooey cheese, and the sticky-sweet heat of the glaze makes these bites unforgettable. They’re easy to customize and perfect for any occasion, ensuring they’ll quickly become a favorite in your recipe collection!
