Can you freeze cheeseburger bombs?

These cheeseburger bombs can be frozen and reheated. Cool completely and arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet. Pop the sheet in the freezer for 30 minutes or until the bombs are frozen solid.

Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating in a 350°F oven, until the heated through, about 10 minutes. Here are a few more general tips on how to freeze food.
