Serving Suggestions

These Cream Cheese Bisquick Sausage Balls can be served alone or with an assortment of dipping sauces. Consider pairing them with mustard, ranch dressing, or a tangy barbecue sauce to enhance the flavor experience. This not only adds variety but also allows your guests to personalize their bites.

For an elegant touch, serve the sausage balls on a platter with toothpicks for easy serving. Adding garnishes like fresh herbs can elevate the presentation and make your dish even more inviting.

Storage Tips

To store leftover sausage balls, place them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will stay fresh for about 3 to 4 days. Reheat them in the oven to restore their crispy exterior, or microwave them if you're in a hurry. Just be careful not to overheat, as they can become tough.
