1 tablespoon mustard
For the Garlic Parmesan Butter:

2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
For the Bombs:
12 slider buns or dinner rolls
Instructions:
Prepare the Cheeseburger Filling:
In a skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat, then drain any excess fat.
Incorporate the chopped onion, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, mustard, salt, and pepper. Stir and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Allow to cool.
Prepare the Garlic Parmesan Butter:
In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, chopped parsley, olive oil, and salt. Mix thoroughly and set aside.
Assemble the Bombs:
Cut the slider buns or dinner rolls in half while keeping them connected.
Spoon a portion of the cooled cheeseburger filling onto the bottom half of each bun.
Top the filling with shredded cheese.
Place the top half of the bun over the filling and gently press down.
Bake the Bombs:
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Arrange the assembled buns in a baking dish and brush the garlic Parmesan butter over the tops.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Serve:
Garnish with extra parsley and serve warm alongside dipping sauces such as ketchup or mustard.
