Bacon Cheeseburger Cups
Description
This recipe begins by cooking ground beef seasoned with kosher salt and coarse black pepper until browned, then mixing in Worcestershire sauce for additional umami. After letting the beef cool, it is combined with chopped American cheese and crumbled cooked bacon. The biscuit dough is split into rounds and pressed into a greased muffin tin.
The beef-cheese-bacon mixture is spooned into each biscuit-lined cup. Baking at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 to 18 minutes yields biscuit edges that are browned and crisp while the filling melts together inside. The result is a compact, cheesy, and savory cup that mimics cheeseburger flavors in a convenient form.
These cups are often served with ketchup dolloped on top and work well as party appetizers or snacks. The recipe’s ingredient proportions yield about twenty individual portions from ten biscuits split into two layers each.
